The military is very good at keeping you in but not great at helping you get out. Dozens of former military personnel have come together to give a short guide on what to do before you ETS, just after you ETS and what to do going forward for you to be successful in the civilian sector. We go over clearing post, planning for your career, using VA Benefits and many other items to help smooth your transition. This is the first in the "A Private's Guide" series.
While I have never served in the armed forces, I wanted to read this book to understand the struggles of Veterans leaving the service. It was very educational, helpful, and will definitely be an asset to anyone in their process to leave. It is a great read, not boring and stuffy at all! It can also benefit family members to read this book to help understand the struggles your loved one will be going through in their process of leaving as well.
I just want to thank everyone who has served our country. We could never be able to thank you enough. You all hold a very special place in my heart, thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!
