I am talking military vs civillian life. You give up many constitutional rights in the military.

I am a retired reserve O6. You give up very few rights being in the military. Yeah, you can't just up and quit on a moments notice, but in civilian life you have to do your job, and in most jobs you can't tell your boss to f-off either. In fact in the military you can't be fired the way you can in the civilian world. Disciplined, sure, but it's like extra duty for a first offence, loss of pay, demotion, confinement to the ship. To go to the brig requires court martial generally for a serious crime.
