[QUOTE="SMS, post: 3168126, member: 42"] My opinion, if you aren't interested in staying in for 10 more then, barring a lack of experience or education, I would pursue a job in law enforcement or the fire department. If neither of those interest you then I would definitely utilize your post-9/11 GI bill benefits and go to school for something viable and marketable like the jobs Dennis mentioned, or healthcare. The benefits are amazing and the VA has radically improved their process. Once you get registered and certified, the VA pays your school and you get a monthly check. You are also likely eligible for the OJT and Apprenticeship Program. If you embark on a career with an on the job training program that is registered and approved with the VA, you earn your regular salary from your employer, plus a monthly stipend from the VA which is the equivalent of BAH for an E-5 with dependents for the length of the OJT/Apprenticeship program. (I'm a 22 year retiree, currently using my GI Bill to pursue a Masters degree). [/QUOTE]
