As Cool1 said, go for the Air Force first, followed by the Navy with the Army last on your list if it is purely for gaining a degree. The Air Force has the lowest physical standards of the three services and they get the best perks. The Navy often spends a lot of time at sea, great for cash for your car but leaves you with not much time to play with it. The Army can be interesting depending on what Corps you end up in but can be very degrading on the body i.e. injury. Also take into consideration the fact that once you are in and have your degree the Government expects their moneys worth out of you, after they have invested so much in you in the way of training. This means you end up with ROSO ( Return Of Service Obligation). In short you have a contract with the Government to serve for a certain number of years, the length of which is determined by what degree/qualifications you have gained. Expect between four and six years.
