Thank you for your service. Out of curiosity, are you doing software stuff in the military or is this just a side hobby? If the former, I'm curious to learn about what kind of work you do. If the latter, why did you not go full time into software?
I am a signal officer. I have performed a different job on every deployment. The military is largely allergic to writing software so all the software I write are just side hustles on GitHub. I am part time military and full time software developer in the corporate world.
