A pro and a con at the same time -

Assuming you go full time, the life you leave behind is probably not the one you will go back to when you get out. Even if you are only in for a few years.

It may improve your life, it may destroy it. It will change it though.
How will it change? No telling. Maybe you meet your wife. Maybe you get hurt in battle. Maybe you come out and find some great job. Maybe you decide to move to another state that you were stationed at.
But your old life - gone.
