The military isn't for everyone. Community College makes a lot of sense. Its much much cheaper for two years of college and the credits will easily transfer to a four year program at a State supported university. Most wouldn't want their daughter or grand daughter to end up in the middle east somewhere just to have their college paid for. That is a real possibility today.

The starting salary in Florida is nothing like it might be in another State. That goes for nurses and teachers.
