As one of those folks who have to do a military stint, I'm actually pretty happy about it. (In terms of training and opportunity for practice... I loathe every 'military' part about being in the military... especially all of the mandatory training BS).
I don't think there's a thread anywhere about this, but since I'm serioulsy considering opportunities in the Navy, I'd like to get a feel for what's available.
For anyone willing to answer, how difficult is it to go into pathology with a prior military obligation? I've always heard that the military can require you to go into whatever program they need folks in.
Any other relevant info would be greatly appreciated.
As an aside, I heard from some folks at the NIH that AFIP is going to be reorganized under the Naval hospital and /or the NIH clinical center in the future. I really hope that's true because if it's available when my time comes in 10 years, I'd like to rotate there.
