Military life cycle

The military life cycle refers to the key phases a service member experiences during their career. It includes Recruitment, where individuals join and are trained; Active Service, where they perform their duties; Transition, preparing for retirement or civilian life; and Post-Service, which involves benefits and VA support. This cycle ensures a structured progression from joining to leaving the military, supporting personnel at each stage with training, career development, and transition assistance, ultimately fostering both individual growth and operational readiness.
