Best Answer

A civilian contractor is there to make money. He is NOT in the service of his country as a member of the United States Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, or Coast Guard. Other than the standard issue of combat pay, over-seas pay, etc. servicemen are NOT in a combat zone (over-seas) to make money (although the smart ones do make money by saving it...if there's no place to spend it) they are there on orders of the US Government. Civilian contractors can quit, military personnel (at least up until the Vietnam War) could NOT quit, if they tried, the stockade would be awaiting them. Civilian contractors can state that they have worked for the military, but they cannot say that they have SERVED IN the military.
