What are your thoughts on serving your country?

I’m stuck here. I’m 25 and have never joined the military. I work on the railroad and I give my service to the USA as anyone would workng in the USA. Now my brother in law which I would rather call my brother is heading out to the air force to train under spec ops and some other behind enemy lines type stuff. I’m just confused why a bright boy would want to put his life on the line like that. There are plenty of other jobs that are just as important in the air force without placing yourself directly in harms way. I don’t know maybe it’s my age talking and I don’t have the edge I would of had when I was 18 but it just doesn’t seem smart to me now. When he gets out of the air force what is he going to do with these “survival/killing” skills when he has a family?

I don’t know I need some input from other people especially from people in the military who have done this.
