After an exhausting session with Victoria's Secret Police, jshmoe
blurted out:

I'd like to know what your opinion is on joining the US Air Force as
an officer and going to OTS. I'm considering going as an officer in a
technical field (not as a pilot).

Go for it...(sorry...I'm a pilot)

Is there any guarantee as to what position I might be working in,

Guarantee? "If their lips are moving, they must be..."

Will knowing Arabic increase my chances of admission?

I have a co-worker that is "contracting out" to the FBI and CIA for
his language skills.

You know, the general sort of questions that can
be asked to a recruiter, but without a clear, honest answer.

I'm sure you can appreciate that to the recruiter, you're just a
statistic, a quota.

Someone out there with experience doing same would help out a great deal

What do you want to do?
