Extremely unlikely.

I bet a 20 year old Army Blackhawk pilot, and she's probably the only one there is. Finished college\ROTC at 18 and off to Fort Rucker for 2 years of flight school. I sort of imagined that Air Force fighter jet training was longer than Army rotary wing training though...

Easy answer, ask her what her plane is and what her unit is. She should be quick and proud to say both. While you're at it, ask her whom her DCC is. If she looks at you with deer in headlights, well, there's your answer.

Yes but not likely. 17 air force academy 3 years 20. Basic flight training 1 year. She could be flying trainers.

My friend went into Air force academy right out of high school, that puts her about 5 hours out of HS, around a year out of the academy and she's flown some low end fighter jets, but nothing like an F16 or anything.

Tom Cruise was 20 in Top Gun but his character was clearly older (bar scenes).

Met with her at around 10pm tonight.

Told her that she needs to stop beating around the bush and start showing me things to convince me that she is who she says she is. That every time she evades she pushes me further and further away. She's pregnant with my baby. From day one she's always been very evasive with my questions, always answering me extremely vaguely about her work.

Asked her what AFSC stood for. She instantly became defensive, and she said it stood for Air Force Security Clearance and that it gives you clearance to see top secret information (it stands for Air Force Specialty Code - everyone's got one). I asked her what her's was and she said "you think I can actually give that to you?" So I asked her how many digits are AFSC's and she got mad and wouldn't answer. I asked her what her rank and number were and she wouldn't answer. I asked her if she's actually flown real missions or just traning missions. She wouldn't answer and said "you know, I think you need to leave." So I left. I'm 26 years old. She's pregnant with our baby. I need help. I'm so worried. Do I need a lawyer ASAP?

Hell yes, especially since im assuming you want custody of the child since she obviously lies about everything and is probably not stable enough to raise a child. If however you want to leave her with custody then a lawyer may or may not be required depending on how her attempt to get child support goes.

Well, she's a liar, so you should obviously get a paternity test. You don't need a lawyer. You need a car and a google maps to planned parenthood.

Also, FBB for troll of the year.

Is it possible for someone (a girl in this case) to have entered the Air Force at 18 and be flying fighter jets at 21? And be an officer?

No. Not unless she entered the AF through the AF Academy at the age of 16.

Why are you even asking?

Ok... so now I've read the thead. Probably should have done that first.

Fuzzy... if what you are posting is true, get a paternity test. And if the baby is yours, be prepared to raise a child with a genetic predisposition for mental illness.

Fuck oh dear...


You can do basic research on your own using any number of online info sites for a minimal charge.
Better bet is to hire a private investigator for a FLAT FEE (couple hundred bucks) to tell you who she really is.. background... legal history... family background... etc...

The Owl thinks you should stop challenging her and give her the fucking respect she deserves for protecting your right to take pictures of whatever tingles your panties.
