Tip: The max point reward for answering a question is 15.
first, there is not much off duty time. most people either stand watch and work 12 hours a day.
in the other 12 you usually sleep, work out, read, watch movies, play cards. there are no clubs or diners. four meals a day are provided and there is a "Gedunk", the Navy equivalent of a small 7-11.
An O-1 has 0-2 years of experience. An E-9 would have 15-30 years. the E-9 typically "trains" and guides the O-1 in leadership especially how to care for his or her troops. Every successful military leader will tell you they owe much to their Chiefs and Sergeants who showed them the ropes.
I recommend joining the Air Force if you want to become a pilot however, people don't just become pilots after having a Bachelors. You have to meet the requirements, pass the exams and be medically cleared and in shape, this applies to all branches. On the other hand its a challenge that only you can decide. I recommend talking to the nearest recruiter.
if you were discharged before finishing basic then you have less than 1 year of service and you are eligible for nothing except the title of "veteran."
if you are in the active reserve and drill one weekend a month and two weeks a year then you will earn pay for the drill period.
If you are in the Inactive or Ready Reserve you will get no pay.
