If you want to serve your country go to the AFA or ROTC. There is a chance that the USAF will think that you can best serve your country as a pilot, There is a chance that they will think your best fit is something else. Like the others have said, you will be an Air Force officer first, pilot second.

If you want to bum around airplanes, go to your local state school, major in something cool (preferably with a high female/male ratio) , and find a kick butt FBO/ flight school to get your ratings, and take your female friends flying. By your senior year, if you work hard you should be able to have your CFI by then and teach part time while going to class, and an airline job shortly after you graduate.
