Not too late to get a degree into your resume. I was enlisted much of my military career, but was fortunate to get into a selective program and got a commission without a degree. I first talked to a headhunter about 8 years ago, late in my military career. He'd come to the base to talk to junior officers about opportunities on the outside. I stayed after and asked what he would do for me if I were to get out at that time - 23 years of service as a supply chain professional, manager, supervisor, department head.....He asked "What's your degree in?" I told him I didn't have one and he said, "Come talk to me after you get a degree."
That was some eye opener, I'll tell you. I never had any desire to go back to school before and cruising into my early 40's and towards military retirement, it was farthest thing from my mind. Within weeks, I was taking night classes and am so very glad now that I got that degree. It would be impossible to overstate the improvement in my employability and income simply because of that degree.
Good luck to you!!
