I’m joining soon as I can, for the experience in the civilian world, and opportunity to be one. It really is as simple as “Where do you want to be during and after.” My brother served Navy for four years and is very well prepared working at a defense contractor. Me? I haven’t broken 50k yet and I’m 28. So where you want to be is what you should focus on.

If you have a 4 year degree, all you have to do is go find an OSO and talk to them. Get a good PFT and they can send your paperwork through pretty quick if you have no extenuating medical problems.
