Early Career Leadership Opportunities - USCG vs. USN

Seems this discussion is more comparing specific types of jobs and their early leadership opportunities.

What percent of USNA plebs would say they are at the USNA because they want to be SWOs? What percent of grads ended up having SWO as a first career choice?

Aviation, USMC, SEALs, Nukes, Subs , etc are why many are at the USNA.

I'm one and I knew many others that always wanted to be SWOs. My father was a longtime Naval Aviator and I tested very well on the Aviation screening tests - close to perfect as well as 20/15 vision but SWO was what I'd always wanted. I chose Surface with the air option so that if I didn't like SWO then I'd have guaranteed orders to flight school but never used them.
