Semper Fi!
My son got out of the Corps 2 years ago. Staff Sargeant in HMLC 369 up at Pendleton. His mos was Air Framer, and he wound up being quality assurance guy for the unit's new Hueys and Cobras. He's very skilled mechanically, but didn't want to pursue a career as a mechanic or turn wrenches for a living. He's a manager for a high end gun shop/ shooting facility here in N Atlanta, and makes money on the side buying and selling cars and guns. Adjusting to civilian life is tough. Make the money to support your family via contract management and play with your hobbies. You can make a good amount of money buying high end cars that need some tlc, fixing them, and selling for a profit. Plus it's on your schedule and not all the income is taxable😎.
Anybody can be a mechanic, only a select few can be a United States Marine!
Thanks for the sacrifices you and your wife made for all of us civilians.
