I served 23 years and have no regrets. The training you receive is useless in the civilian world unless you pick a job that has high vacancy rates. You can certainly be an MP/SP/AP in any branch and you can finish your degree in IT. I got my degree in IT by going to school part-time in the evenings. I was a also an instructor at the Computer Sciences School. I became well-versed in many vocations and am a jack of all trades. I have never been without a job as a result.
The military is much like the Police Officer Corp. The strict "by the book" rendition because of B & C's, your circle of friends will be only those of the same vocation.
