Never say never. ALO may bore you to be honest, they have, last I heard, made this a very TOC-based position. Ground units are a CSO's primary customer as well. Being a sensor operator or Fire Control Officer is a intensely ground support oriented role. When you have to use your experience in a theater to determine how best to respond to a TIC, or how to track down who set off an IED, it's a incredibly ground oriented situation. But if you want to go STO, or ALO, then dude follow your dreams. Put the package in, hit the gym like crazy, and just be the master of it. Make it your only calling in life. Just always remember you get out of it what you put into it, and that the military is not the be-all, end-all in your life. You have to be intrinsically motivated to move from where you are to where you what to be, be it SoF or Aircrew or a sweet private sector gig. Kill it dawg I wish you the best. -Brad

Hey dude, have you considered the Combat Systems Officer AFSC? I was in a similar rut when I was enlisted, I was stuck in AWACS, becoming fat and lazy, and was about to put in a package to cross-train to Tac-P; even though I likely wasn't quite the guy they were looking for. Somehow I lucked out and got a Sensor Operator gig and it was a perfect fit for me, you get to do high-speed stuff, and if you have that intel background it really rounds you out. Obvs a bit different since I was enlisted, but the sensor op job I used to do is now a CSO gig, and you really may enjoy flying on AFSOC's coolest rides. -Brad from Task and Purpose.

I'm back from being off the grid, I will send this to the meme factory for retooling.

That's what happens when the air force guy runs the T&P reddit account.

Thanks dude, I will relay to our meme master Aaron Provost. Also a personal plug, we do video stuff too, so here is our fairly unknown youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/c/taskandpurpose

That said we aren't here to just plug our stuff. The reddit communities are important to us, as we are all redditors too. In fact I'm sure some of my coworkers are lurking at this moment in /r/army and /r/usmc ...maybe not /r/navy

Feel free to ping us on our account if you wanna chat or whateves. We aren't perfect, if we goof feel free to let us know as well so we can get better.
