gr8snkbite and I have talked in person about life after the military a couple of months ago as I retired recently and now have a "real job"...whatever that is.

 

Folks leaving the military often joke about having to get a "real job" or "figuring out what I want to be when I grow up"

 

Transition from the the military to civilian world after 20-30 years can be quite disconcerting and stressful. It's a totally different world than what we have been used to.

 

As he will soon discover, he is a highly valued commodity in the civilian world,. His biggest stress will not be "will I get a job" but rather "which job offer do I take".

 

No disrepect was intended for giving 30 years of Service to this nation.

 

Congratulations again and Thank you for the sacrifices you and your family have made for our freedom.

its been a great ride, and my pleasure to serve our great nation. The best part was teaching and watching the young ones grow and develop...even the officers...they need guidance as well. In case your wondering, i retired as a MasterChief..
