From your tough background, I think you are an ideal candidate for your role. One reason is you can appreciate the benefits.
One piece of advice - seize the opportunities that come up - being the guy who is prepared to go when others won't is a a big advantage in any form of public service. Plus active service means even better pay, chances for promotion and short tours so you aren't locked in.
The next step might be to find a job that suits the military career, gives you the long leave you need. Something like a civilian job in the US Defence Department might be worth investigating.
