So besides all the problems around how you've been trained and what you've been trained to do, there are limited rewards for doing these jobs well, so you're going to start getting pretty frustrated with the military itself as you keep doing this.
Then think on this: as independent contractors, after leaving the military, these folks are in demand and get paid well.

They also get recruited to other parts of the Government: CIA, NSA, Secret Service, DIA, etc.
