I see a few claim the military will "ruin" your kid. Well, I can't comment on your kid or all the military collectively. I can say this. Out of my oldest three sons . . . one went the college route for six years. The other two went directly into the Navy nuclear program and spent a lot of time with submarine duty. The two that were in the Navy came out and had great high-tech job offers all over the country. Not so easy with the kid that went to college to get two degrees and no hands-on skills.
So now? The oldest who went to college is 40 years old and still has near 100K in student loan debt. The other two? Both working as engineers. One in the magnetic imaging field and the other in designing communication systems. Note that both of them later, while working, got college degrees and used the GI bill to pay for it. They did not need the degrees for their work. Just something they wanted under their belts.
The only thing I'm going to say slightly negative about their military duty is how hard it was for them to get out. Every time their duty was up, they'd get offered a huge chunk of cash to reenlist which is sometimes hard to refuse.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
