Most military now say they wouldn't choose same career for their kids

Not many careers where you can start at 17/18, retire at 37/38 and draw a check for the rest of your life. My oldest son had childhood asthma and was disqualified. My daughter did 6 years in the ARNG, including one deployment to Iraq. Paid for her college with GI bill. Youngest son showed no interest and I didn't push him. However, he was able to become a certified heavy equipment operator using my GI bill.
