Ever feel like you should do more for your country? Feel a "calling" of sorts?
First off, I'm a veteran, was in the Navy 6 years, so I served my country. But now, as a 32 year old male, I feel like I could still contribute, whether it be in battle or some behind the scenes type stuff...

Was thinking about guys that are currently in harms way, most of these guys are dumbshits, no offense. If you've been in the military, you realize it is far from the best and brightest, typically is the guys who had no other options with the occasional smart fella sprinkled in.

I'm no genius, at all, but I'd say I'm smarter than your average person and feel at my age, 32, I still have a lot of valuable time left and would like to use some of it for the greater good. I have recently had a kid, he's 4 months old now, so that also kinda limits me...

But anyway, I'm trying to think of something constructive to do with my time, whether it be a new career or something to do on the side. I've thought about being a reserve sheriff, but my wife doesn't like the idea of a hurricane coming and me having to stay behind while her and the kid evacuate.

Anyone else think like this? Any suggestions?


TLDR, GFY
