About this site

Joint Compass is not an official U.S. Air Force, Department of Defense, or U.S. government website. We are not sponsored, endorsed, or employed by any military branch.

We are tax-paying citizens with friends, family, and colleagues in the services. This site exists to make the process less confusing for everyone involved.

What this site is for:

• Help you understand the big requirements in plain language.
• Give candidates a simple way to see where they currently stand.
• Help recruiters by sending them people who already know the basics and have done some prep.

The internet is noisy. Our goal is to give you one calm place to organize your study time, your fitness plan, and your questions before you walk into a recruiting office.

Always verify anything you see here against official instructions, up-to-date guides, and your recruiter, fitness staff, or medical staff. If there is ever a conflict, the official rules always win.
