I'll some up all the logic and reasoning like this:
1. If you desire to be an officer and you are a civilian, settlle for nothing less than an officer program.
2. Going enlisted as a backdoor into the commissioned ranks is:
a. An insult to the enlisted ranks and a waste of time to those charged with training and protecting you.
b. A very risky endeavor
3. If you can accept #2 and enlist anyways, be prepared to accept the chance that you wil be an enlisted nuke for 6 years of your life. Like was mentioned before, you have no idea of the manning projections and social dynamics that go into making officer billets. You may, as an enlisted nuke, do something, say something, or be something that will jeopardize your chances, but still obligate you to a 6 year stay. You may get injured, you may hate being a blue-shirt with a degree taking orders from someone without your academic credentials or an officer without your experience. Can you handle that? This is all reality.
Before you sign on the dotted line, think on it, sleep on it, go out and get blithering drunk, get a hangover, and during your recovery think on it some more. If you still think it is a good idea to enlist just to get officer, you have not drank enough.
