Very good, brief comment, wiggy.
You don't know if you'll like it until you try it (as they say
)
I even liked my short tour in ATC.
Although, as a 23yo ex MN officer, I found IOT a bit of a PITA, we were all in it together and humour helped a lot as bollockings were liberally and equitably dished out.
Never forgotten marching to an early morning ensign hoisting parade and, upon hearing a buzzing sound from the centre of our little formation, observed a cadet demonstrating multi-tasking with his battery electric razor.
So there's another thing - the mil produces loads of stories with which to bore wife, kids, airline pilots etc.
