I am medically retiring from the Air Force and am forced to change careers at age 32. Rather than going back to college and starting from scratch, I was hoping there was something else out there that I can use my experience and training for. I have a family to support and the menial amount of retirement pay isn't going to cut it.

I've got 9 years combined experience and I have also been a volunteer firefighter for about 15 years. I have no interest in going through fire academy, so that's out. People call me an adrenaline junkie. I need some type of excitment in my new career.

I have a buddy that did the same he quit at our department and moved to California and hooked up with a dog trainer now he works 3 days a week at the IRS building with a dog . and the rest of his time he trains dogs and searches schools factories or where ever some one wants there property searched from what I under stand California doesn't have drug detection dogs owned by any departments. so if your are in California and you want to continue to work with dog that might be something to check out

I would totally say go into executive protection! There is a lot of money in it! I am a firefighter and work part time as a police officer for the PD in the same city. One of our guys just left his fulltime position to work executive protection and if my wife weren't pregnant right now, I'd follow in his footsteps.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
