How will you show off your hard-earned experience after transitioning?

Your rank is a symbol of accomplishment. Those around you recognize your effort, commitment, diligence, and perseverance because they're familiar with what it took to rise to your level during military service. There are a lot of ways to achieve the same recognition from your civilian colleagues after transition.

How are you planning on showcasing your expertise - have you found a way to translate your military accomplishments to be understood by civilians? Maybe you have you considered a degree? It's the closest thing to rank after service! Let us know if any of these options might interest you! http://rly.pt/2nUikdW

Definitely true! I feel like people size each other up depending on level of education in the civilian world. I definitely have a lot of respect for people who complete their Masters degrees after seeing many of my closest friends pursue theirs, and even more respect for those who went through the PhD program after hearing about my mother's journey achieving hers. I wouldn't know obviously, but guessing that might be similar to how people see rank and size each other up in the military?
