What kind of specific jobs accept my mlitary time towards their retirment?

I am a Staff Sergeant in the US Army with 8 years in after this contract I'll have 10. Due to the a declined need in my job skill resulting in a total transistion of my job,I've decieded to get out of the military. I know many people will try to ask why I don't reclass, it's because I have only three options Warrent Officer (in my job field), Career recruiter (done that and it sucks), or get out and come back in. This is due to my time in service. also adding to that is the fact I have a one year old son and have done two deployements while in service (I'd kinda like to see him grow up and stay married). I'm trying to map out my future and start aiming towards positions I can fill in the civilian sector. I know that I can work a federal level and keep my time in service towards retirement but I'm wondering if there's other organizations out there that do the same thing. I think I would enjoy law enforcement but am trying to open up towards other options.

1. May civil service jobs do.
2. wish you the best of luck we tried to get job sign ins for the armed services our results were a big 0 even wrote the white house for job placements, results were two obe said they would not hire killers which was said in the nam wars the other radio shack saying they are learned. Sorry i could be of no help. God Bless and Thank you for serving.
3. probably slim and none in the civilian sector. but you might look into other gov't agencys,a lot of them used to,i don't know if they still do. if you want your son to have a decent life,stay the hell away from the big cities. like county sheriff in a rural area,if you're talking law enforcement. you'll still get your share of dipshits,you just don't have to live with them. best of luck in whatever you decide.
4. The post office does. It is also much more than being a letter carrier, it's a whole industry. Transportation, IT, engineering, HR, mechanical and electrical technicians, general laborers, supervisors, safety, retail, vehical mechanic, etc. You also get hiring preference since you are a veteran. Been there, am there.
5. www.usajobs.gov is the federal website. I encourage you to seriously consider moving into the gov't sector. Especially if you have made the time investment and finished your college degree. There is a big push on to hire veterans so now is a very good time to be seeking a job within fed gov't. I'll be interested to see if there is a company out there who will roll your service into their retirement plan. I've never heard of that in the private sector.
