You must be under 30 to even apply. My Son went to ATC school. It's a 50/50 pass or fail. Sadly he did not make it.

...it's still the military

False. 42

Apply for Civilian jobs in the Military sector. Or, Railroad, Forestry, Parks and Wildlife. Not sure your objective here.

I applied to Amazon before for a highly senior position and made it to final interview so I think I would have a better chance for a new grad type role.

For additional info: my loan is a private loan of ~100k at ~5.2%. I have no other debt.
