I’m currently in college, enlisted in the ANG. I’m looking to join the AFROTC program at my university and commission as a Security Forces Officer. What are the pros and cons? Are there different sub-fields within Security Forces officers?
3P: Security Forces
31PX: Security Forces

There are no sub-fields for 31P (the AFSC for Officer Security Forces) like there are for enlisted. You will get sent any place that there are SF units (which is everywhere). However, your chances of going to a missile base is much higher than an enlisted SF Airman.

SMSgt Thor Merich - had a SF member marry a girl from town (Minot) so they could move into base housing and promptly start growing weed. Ugh...

On another note, My cousin was down in your neck of the woods last week - with the MO Army Nat'l Guard. I asked him to go cause trouble in the SOCOM offices just to make you have to do something, but he let me down...LOL

Not sure about different sub-fields that officers in SF would go with - especially since the merger of LE & Security. I think, now, they are more focused on the big picture as a whole, instead of specifically over LE ops & Security Ops. Of course, specifics would depend on what Wing you are assigned to - an LE wing, or a Security wing.
Its never bad to consider going commissioned once you complete your degree!

I’m getting my degree in criminal justice so it’s definitely on my mind, I was originally an engineering major but I’ve found that it’s not for me. Commissioning is definitely my goal.

That's a hard question to answer now days..it was different when I was in.. it was seperated into law enforcement and security.. they have since combined into the security forces.. I seperated in 1995
