I did 6 years with the Texas Air National Guard Band and really loved every minute. Well, most minutes. From my experience with the Air Guard, we never had to spend time in a field or painting rocks. Our only specialty was to play our horns. The disadvantage of the Air Guard was at that time there was no student loan repayment plan. I think the Army Guard was doing the repayment plan. (I have been out of the Guard for several years now so I do not know the specifics of what each service is currently offering.)
