Tom I encourage you to check the vet center Nearest to you and sign up for hiring our heroes career fairs. You may not find the opportunity of your dreams but hopefully you land in a place that you can stick with until you fully retire.

Tom have you used all of your GI bill and your Vocational rehab? Both will pay for more training and provide BAH while your going. ICE, boarder patrol, secret service are all actively hiring and pay well. Hiring our Heroes is another resource.
