Join Coast Guard?

So I'm currently in the 1st semester of my sophomore year of college and I'm completely miserable. I want a job that actually pays money and feel like I'm serving a purpose. I'm interested in the coast guard because I'm really confident in and around water and because I love the water. I also really want to be a pilot. I feel like I could go to the coast guard and save up the money I make while serving to go to a flight school to get my pilots licenses and enough flight hours to be a commercial pilot. I would also have the GI Bill to help pay for flight school. I feel like it'd be a good option for me toward my career as a pilot. If I ever needed to then I could always go back to school and would have credits already completed that would be transferable. Do y'all think this would be a good idea? Or that this could really help me accomplish my goal of becoming a pilot and being able to find jobs as a pilot? (Of course not an airline pilot or anything like that right away but other jobs like a regional pilot?) what do y'all think?
