the coast guard can afford to have the highest standards.No disrespect to the AF intended here, but the Coast Guard has the highest standards of all the services, and it is the most difficult to get in...
Full disclosure: I served in the US Army, but my son has been accepted into the Coast Guard.
the standards for entry in any military service are inversely proportional to the chances of having your legs blown off by the enemy.
