The Air Force is the only one of the military branches involved in President Donald Trump's mandated border mission to not disclose publicly the number of service members or what units they're coming from.
As a person from a military family, they’d clock you instantly. Once you live among military people, you begin to be able to spot who is or isn’t military instantly. Even not being in the military myself, I can almost always at least guess their branch and get within a rank or 2. I’ve never seen my dad not get branch and exact rank within a couple seconds of talking to someone
On the other hand, I am a disabled adult who has never served or even been eligible for military service and yet I am still asked a handful of times a year 20 years after the last traumatic event I experienced if I have served, and with what branch. It’s not always a sure thing. Traumatized neurodivergent people get close enough to fool some.
