This is interesting. I’m a veteran and know first hand how terrible the system can be.
I’ve taight myself JavaScript and have recently learned Django with my current position. I don’t have any plans to leave the company now, but working on systems that can help out fellow veterans more easily is tempting.
Maybe in a year or two I’ll revisit this :)

I'd like to build a tool to make it easier for other Veterans." And then they did! Check out this GI Bill comparison tool that Marc (the Veteran I mentioned) built: https://www.vets.gov/gi-bill-comparison-tool/ https://www.vets.gov/gi-bill-comparison-tool/ . Seeing vets help out brothers and sisters who have served is really inspiring.
