helis in the navy and airforce are flown by officers, so their respective academies or an ROTC program would get you there with work. In the army helis are flown by warrant officers, a middle ground between enlisted and officer, and it isn't a real career path.

USCGA graduates more people to flight training then the navy/airforce as more officers can fly then the above branches.

Officers also can fly in the army.

well theres the admin guys but you got what I was saying

[furbyballer]

I go to the Naval Academy and anyone is free to pm me with questions. As far as flying goes, of the 1000 midshipman that graduate from here about 300, maybe a little more or less, will get sent to flight school. That number is much higher then Air Force and the Army doesn't fly.
