Gentle reminder that while the military does have need for combat personnel there are many veterans who did not see combat during their enlistment and were employed in any number of important technical roles. The military needs office workers, too
Yes I do know that's why I said "on average". Your average military person is not going to have civilian skills obviously some will but a lot will be ex combat.
Your average military person is in a non combat position. The US military is not a bunch of guns with a few people behind the lines. It is the biggest logistics company in the world who happens to also have a few guns. Yeah you are right that pointy spear people tend to not do well in mundane jobs, but most military personnel are not pointy spear people.
There's a reason the operational/combat are considered the "tip of the spear." It's because the vast majority consist of the shaft that supports it.
