Welcome to the Intelligence AFSC discussion blog. The purpose of this blog is to foster discussion between future Air Force officers interested in Intel and current officers in the Intel career field. The views expressed in this blog are solely the opinions of the individual authors and not of the United States Air Force nor the Department of Defense.
There is no normal day! Typical first assignment as a Lt is with a squadron, so you'll learn all about your platform's mission. To support the mission you might do anything from current events briefings, threat system briefings, training, deploy, targeting, etc...
Worst day: Briefing intel during the Wing standup...Wing CC & all of the other base commanders...my briefing sucked, and the Wing CC let me know it...
Best Day: Being part of mission planning for blowing up Afghanistan & Iraq...deploying in support. Very satisfying being part of a team doing these sorts of things...
Leadership opportunities: plenty! Intel is a big AFSC. Typical leadership opportunities start at the senior Capt level. Flight CC, Squadron CC, DO positions, even Intel Wing CC positions. Intel just gained a 3-star billet at the HQ AF level, so there will be more Gen Officer billets for Intel studs like us.
