More education is always better.
Best to go to college and then
get your commission.

College ROTC can show you much and help with costs and job placement. It's a committment.

You may wish to access other resources (parents)
and enjoy your college time with more freedom.

Either way best of luck and we all love enlisted Airmen and Women too...

Ditto! If you have the opportunity to get a 4 year degree, then make that your primary goal. You won't regret it.

Crap. Thirded...tripled, triced? Something like that.

Why am I always "thirding" things? I don't know how to do that.

Anyway, what these guys said. Go to college, get a commission. I would offer you one other alternative/option here and that is to enlist in the USAF Reserves WHILE going to college. I'm sure these guys above will back me up when I say that officers tend to get a little more respect when they know that you've been where they've been. Doing some time as an enlisted reservists would probably be a really good thing and give you some insight as a leader when you do earn that commission.
