Bait and switch. 18yo walks in to the Navy recruiter saying they want to be a Blue Angel. Great, do we have a plan for you! Sign right here and after a few short years of service and some school paid for by the GI Bill you'll be ready for flight training in Pensacola! 6 months later he/she is scrubbing toilets/doing laundry/washing dishes on some destroyer off the coast of Shitbagistan.
