I have a close friend who was a navy pilot till he left the service to pursue a degree in pharmacology. I once asked him why he never considered becoming an airline pilot and he said such a career was only as good as his next physical.
and nothing you've put toward that career carries over to anything else.
Military pilots get grounded for a lot less than vertigo.

I knew a guy that was grounded by the Navy because of a back injury and he wasn’t even a pilot just a crew member.
