Hello everyone,
I've been trying to seek out to learn from experience from those who have been in the military (more specifically, the combat arms) and then went off to attend school post-release.
Background: It's looking like, since my knees are falling apart, that after 12 years in the army, I might be getting a medical release. I understand the benefits side of the house but after a bunch of searching, I couldn't find many personal experience anecdotes or literature from Canadian vets who have gone on to the civilian world and attended college.
I've seen a lot of stuff from professional sites on what to expect on the personal aspect of this, but was curious if anyone on these forums could offer up personal experience as an anecdote or give any advice?
I've been in since I was 17 and don't have much experience with the people on the other side of the fence. I have a lot of apprehension about the whole thing. I think the pressure of trying to act normal and not stand out too much is stressing me out.
Anything is welcome.
Cheers!
