Hi everybody!

I signed my AIRC contract a few weeks ago and still have some unanswered questions. From the small amount of information I could find online, I'm under the impression that all the high speed, door gunning, rescue swimming, survival training, freedom fighter stuff I was face fed at MEPS is looking to be a crock. Since I'll be a reservist is it true that I won't have the opportunity to choose what sub-rate I would like? I understand the whole "needs of the Navy" but I was sold on AIRC the second they said shoot stuff from helicopters and C-130 gunships. I would really love to be an AWS dry-helo but from what I've read I won't even make it to SERE school. Any AW reservists that could give me a run down of the difference between the Active Duty and Reserves pipeline?

Thanks in advance!
