So all the special activities you want are Air Force orientated and you want to go into thr Army?

You'd be astounded by the number of leadership lessons I learned at Cadet Officer School and the Civic Leadership Academy that help me on a nearly daily basis in the field of secondary education, with absolutely no USAF service.

The Air Force flavor doesn't spoil the substance of training and education.

I would go for PJOC as your first choice.

HMRS is always a good option as well.  There are both the Advanced Squadron & Medic Programs.

NESA (GTM3,2,1 or MRO, GTL, etc...)
PJOC 8)
APJOC 8) 8)
I wouldn't go to HMRS(it's a camp out) :-X ???
I wouldn't go to Blue Beret(it's an airshow) :-X ???

Regardless of the activity have fun , try to learn about yourself, leadership
and problem solving.

I haven't attended either, but I've only heard good things about PJOC and CCOC.

I still say they need to change abbreviation to CCTOC or CCTFC.

+1
CCOC to CCTFC and PJOC to PJFC. Standardized system. Most other AF NCSA's are called "Familiarization Courses".
