So I saw the APG added a lot of these "extra this or that" feats for various mechanics (Rage powers, Discoveries, Hexes, Rogue talents.. etc..)
But then I realized there was no feat allowing you an extra class level. Did I miss it? Is it in another supplement somewhere?
The Paizo crew has stated on the Blog that this was an oversight on their part, and will be errata'ed in soon.
You can check out the post here.
Just house rules it and move on!

Extra Level
Benefit: You gain an additional class level in a class of your choosing. You gain hit dice, skill points, save bonuses, bass attack, and class features as appropriate for your additional level. You also gain a bonus feat.
Special: This feat may be taken multiple times. Its effects stack. Each time it is taken, you may choose a level in any class. This feat can also be selected when assigning the feat gained from having taken this feat previously.

It could be fun to consolidate the Extra Blah feats into a single feat.
Extra Blah
Benefit You gain increased use of a specific class ability. If the class ability has uses per day (such as smite evil or channel energy), you gain two additional uses per day. If the class ability is usable for a certain numbers of rounds per day (such as bardic performance or rage), you gain six additional rounds per day. If the class ability is a flat increase, such as caster level or BAB, you are treated as if you were one level higher.
Extra Level
Benefit: You gain an additional class level in a class of your choosing. You gain hit dice, skill points, save bonuses, bass attack, and class features as appropriate for your additional level. You also gain a bonus feat.
Special: This feat may be taken multiple times. Its effects stack. Each time it is taken, you may choose a level in any class. This feat can also be selected when assigning the feat gained from having taken this feat previously.
This feat is obviously overpowered and broken. I demand that Paizo errata this immediately! If my demands are not met I will whine and cry about it on these forums ad nauseum until I get several other people to join me on my stupid crusade to ensure this ability/feat/spell/whatever is removed from the game I know and love. Because obviously if it is written on the internet, in a book, or said directly to me by someone I know it is obviously a rule that cannot be broken and I am powerless to stop it with the exception of coming here to whine and cry about it. I will not stop, and I will not desist until my demands are met. Once this occurs I will gloat about my victory for several months or until the next thing comes along that raises my ire. You have been warned.

Extra Character
Benefit Your character is a twin, and you both adventure together. You play your character's twin as if it was a cohort, but it's character level is equal to your PC's character level. It appears with level-appropriate gear, and does not have to pursue the same character class, but must be of the same race and have the same starting attributes. You may take this feat after 1st level, 'discovering' an unknown twin, but the twin must be created having already taken this feat.
Special You can take this feat multiple times, gaining a new character each time.

Pay is 1/10 of total treasure gained by you.

** spoiler omitted **
On the other hand, after your platoon leader time, your involvement with actual soldiers will get less and less as you spend more time on staff. I like working with soldiers, but until I command, I really only work with other seniors. If you really love teaching and mentoring junior enlisted and young NCOs, your days of being able to do that as an officer will be limited.
As for branch, just have a plan. If you're planning on staying for 20+, pick a branch that you want to do for the rest of your career. If you're planning on getting out after your ADSO, pick a branch that gets you hired in the civilian sector (Signal, Finance, AG, Quartermaster, etc.). If you ask for a branch related to your current MOS you're likely, but not guaranteed, to get it. IIRC your MOS, Medical Service would be a shoe-in. MS guys who get out can get good jobs as hospital administrators.
Also get while the getting's good. Drawdowns will probably mean a reduction in officer accessions across the board, which means G2G slots will get scarcer. If you want to do it, get it locked in with your reup NCO or whoever sooner rather than later.
If you want to talk about it more, email me at blues man charlie at gmail dot com and I'll send you my phone #, or friend me on FB and my #'s in my info.

O.O' I don't know whether to laugh or cry! Are we really all this much alike!?!?! Does this really happen everywhere? Would anyone else like to help me comment on this feat, its relevance to gaming culture, and the possible repercussions it may have on a fantasy medieval setting? Specifically, how to resolve it with a liberally applied evangelical socially conservative libertarian ideology that embraces same-sex marriage on a case-by-case basis dependent upon the salary of the participants' favorite American football player.
Wait... whose turn was it?
