This seems to be something many people are interested in, but not posting very much. I have talked to 2 people this week and tried to answer questions for them. I may not have the answers, but I'll do all I can to point you in the right direction.
Military experience is not needed for all Jobs.
I don't care if you have only worked at a fast food joint, there is a job in food service that pays $80K to work in the chow hall. Point being, you are probably more qualified than you think for some jobs.
Job title is not always a make sense thing. They call it one thing, but then you read the description and realize, hey I can do that. Just read what the companies have posted and check back weekly for new postings.
There are a lot of people on this site that really want to do this, based on my above stated lack of obligations. They have told me they are in the same boat. Quit waiting for someone to tell you the one thing you think might be out there to stop you from looking into it, and send your resume.
NOW, if you go over seas and are in an area of conflict, UNDERSTAND THE RISKS FOR THE AREA YOU WILL BE IN. Rockets don't care where they land. They don't care if you are military, or civilian. They are pointed at US bases and don't care if they hit a truck, a water tower, a soldier or civilian, or if they even go off. You have to be careful and that all there is.
Google the companies above. Click on the site and look for the careers/jobs section. Start reading them carefully.
Call or pm me with questions. Understand, I have not been a contractor. I just know there are great opportunities with them, long and short term.
