There are a lot of jobs that are well-suited for veterans. Some veterans decide to go back to school and become health care providers, educators, information technology experts or business leaders. Others stay connected to federal service by becoming government contractors or civil servants in career fields similar to what they did on active duty. And some become politicians.

Military-to-Politics; although military personnel are said to be apolitical, jobs in the service of the People and of the Nation is an income too.

I think that by having to work in an apolitical manner through our careers, primes us to work in a bipartisan manner because we are use to setting aside our personal opinions to work on what is required.

This is definitely on my radar after I retire. I could not imagine a better way to serve my nation in retirement than to work hard to improve the political landscape and provide additional meaningful service that directly affects a constituency.
