    Any suggestions would be great.

    You won't get much help from this crowd if you aren't subscribed - my guess anyways. Unless you are asking for suggestions on what field to go into as opposed to asking for someone on here to give you a job :)?

    How old are you? what particular field are you looking at? are you capable of doing manual labour? can you commute to the UK? :)

    You have business education and experience in supply and logistics. So I would start there. How do you like computers and technology? I'm thinking something like ERP (Enterprise resource planning) or EDI, maybe working in a large distribution center where logistics and supply is crucial? You're a Marine I'm sure you can figure something out :)

    Use your connections as a marine. Go to some vet functions and network with people. Do not be afriad to tell folks you are looking for a job. 80% of jobs out there are never advertised and are got by networking.

    Thanks for the advice. I have been looking at procurement positions and some other things that I have had experience in. It is fun times doing the whole job search thing.

    Asked my better half about this, she works HR for an oil company, and her advice is to get on Monster and start searching. It only took a couple minutes to find some openings at her company that are probably in your area of experience.

    Dude, only you can know what you want to do with your life. Don't ask for direction from us or, for that matter, anyone else.

    Whatever road you choose, don't let money be your guide; let it be passion for what you love doing!
