I'm sure there are people who are; after all, it's a career just like anything else--with an added patriotic benefit of being able to say you serve your country. But just like other people get burnt out of being architects, lawyers, etc., some military people can also reach a point where they would like to leave the military and do something else. It doesn't make you a whiner or a traitor--you probly just need a career/lifestyle change. Don't let some of the responses here get you down--I appreciate your service and if you are 'sick of being in the military' then just finish out your time and try something else! The world is a big place with lots of opportunity...

Just you. Do your time, try to act like a man, and get out.
The military does not want people like you.
2/3 of all military are re-enlisting.
80,000 new recruits since Jan 06.
(Why would you come on Yahoo to whine?)

The Marine corps has a slogan, "a good Marine is a bit chin Marine! You aren't supposed to like it! But, think of all the fond memories, good friends, drunken brawls, high hills to climb, miserable weather, high seas on an LST, blood, guts, and MRE's.
Now, where in hell will you ever get all that, and in just one enlistment? Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it!

I did. It took me almost 21 years before I made the big decision and retired. Would do it all over again too if I had the chance.

Not a military man myself, but one of my friends is getting really tired and frustrated.

I was in the US Army from 1991-1995, the biggest mistake of my life, was getting out.

Sounds like a personal problem to me. Go see the Chaplin and stop your moaning.

My husband missed it so much that he re enlisted after being out for a year.

My husband says the saddest day of his life was the day he took off his uniform for the last time.
THANK YOU to all who serve or have served!
