lol I assumed you were referencing preparation for civil war, and had lots of things to say! If you know that any war will be waged by your nation state, then any male under 40 is kinda at the whims of that nation state, ultimately. That said, assuming you’re in Europe or America, it would take a massive shakeup to start drafting people into the infantry again, especially anyone with a useful degree.
Practically speaking, if you’re still seriously worried, take a look at contractor jobs for the DOD! What they need now is probably what they’ll need during the war:
- tech buzzwords: C/C++, embedded programming, static code checking, data pipelines in general
- industry buzzwords: satellite ground resource management / telemetry, tracking, and control (GRM/TTC), Command and Control (C2), signals intelligence (SIGINT), bombs
- dole 2y agoBesides the DoD itself, the US Army and Air Force also have Civilian Service jobs and I'd assume the other branches would do something similar. Get into local, city, state government (as an employee vs public office.) Knowing GIS is always handy.
