Joining the military for IT career growth

I regret not exploring IT career options before joining the military, now I'm 30 and feel like I've missed out on my 20s

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew the impact of joining the military on my personal life"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider your personal goals and priorities before making a decision that may impact your life for 20 years"
