My advice is just go to finance and "top up" your GI bill, and file for disability and just chill as a civi and go to school.
That's what I did, if you need any help just let me know.

40K is A LOT of money, but going back to Iraq three times doesn't sound too good.

I'm just thinking about it. plus the BAH might be worth it. no barracks bs.
Also with re up you will be reassigned no doubt about it to another post, and most units don't let E5's live off post.
Also if you re up that's how they get you because when your window opens up next you won't have pretty re up options because once they get you for 8 they are sure that you will stay. Because you gotta look at it like this. When people re up they probably already served 4 than they add on another 4, so when it's time for them to get out they don't because they already have 8, so they say why not and just do the 20. Trust me on this I've seen it happen to many times.

But your re up options as far as Nipon, Singapore, and Aussie are nice provided that you can lock em in.
