I did not get the GI Bill and the military did not make me the man I am today lol
All it really did was open my eyes to how real authority and hierarchy is - God made the world that way and we should respect it.
But no, it is NOT worth it. Joining the military is literally throwing your life away. Even if you're in for the minimum 4 years, there is a lot to be said of the psychological damage it can do, especially if you don't believe in the unjust American conflicts…
OP should do Coast Guard if he really feels the need to volunteer himself. If not that then Reserves would be a second choice.
Staying out of the military altogether is the bet option though for the reason of it being immoral.
