Im in that boat right now. Ive been out since January and im having a difficult time adjusting to civilian life. The military life did me well and i made the best of it. I enlisted at 18 and i guess i got out because i thought i knew better and thought i was missing out back at home, which i was and i wasnt in a way. I really dont think being out is for me like i thought it would when i was in but i have talked to others and they said they all went through the readjustment period. I guess getting a taste soured me on being out and made me realize how good things were while i was in as far as having insurance paid for, the roof over my head paid for as well as all the bills. That and it seems that the Army has been more of a family to me in the last 3 years especially than my own now that i see it from the outside. Any recruiters currently? Im looking to see what the options are for prior service Army coming in as far as getting an Airborne or Pathfinder slot if thats even possible.
