So they will tell you that you can apply for anything but they really want you to go nuke officer.
Are there any added benefits to going officer other than the status, because otherwise in the pipeline shown here it seems that it will pay to stay enlisted because from what I can tell as an ETNSS you are looking to make over $50,000 a year every year after the 3rd year in which that year alone you will pull in close to $90,000, and then after year 10 forget it the money is bonkers!

So is there any pay over your standard officer pay going officer or will you essentially take a pay cut for a while?
