FWIW, I've had this same conversation with my 18-year-old son!

If you want to be a warrior, then join the military!

If you want to be a flying warrior, then join the military!

If all you want is to be an airline pilot and have "Uncle Sam" pay for it, then there are multiple civilian routes to accomplish this much quicker...



JMHO, YMMV!
