Well, according to my Professor of Military Science, it's perfect preparation for a career in Armor Branch. At 34, I don't think the Army will take me. 34 year-old privates don't take orders very well.
Honestly, one of my biggest regrets in life was not serving in the military. I really wish I had done that right out of highschool.

My dad and all his brothers served, although only one was career military. In my generation, including all my cousins, I was the only one. I really think people are missing out on a great experience that teaches lots of life lessons. Plus, its lots harder to sterotype and demonize the military if you've served and know what its like.

I feel guilty for being a selfish dumba$$ by not serving my country as well as missing out on the benefits the military could have had on my life. The BS in Architectural Design was a little short on duty, honor, and country.

If you have a degree, try officer. They take 34 year olds as officers. You would have tons of career choices. No, I'm not a recruiter.
