Air Force graduate Ben Garland has to choose between the NFL and a spot into a pilot training program at Laughlin Air Force Base in Texas. "It's such a golden ticket either way," said Garland, who is a rookie defensive lineman with the Broncos. He has to at some point serve a five-year commitment to the Air Force. Garland possibly could skip pilot training and fulfill his commitment through working down the road at the Academy in the finance department.
