Then & Now - We want to hear from you!

What did you do in the military, and what the hell are you doing now?

That’s the short version of Then & Now – CIVVY’s regular feature where veterans talk honestly about life after service. Not the polished LinkedIn version. The real one – the false starts, the culture shocks, the moments it clicked.

Issue 1 features veterans who’ve gone from uniform to some genuinely unexpected places. If you’re doing something interesting, something your old unit would raise an eyebrow at, we want to know about it.

A few questions, straight answers, no fluff. Your name, your service, your story.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re running a business, working a trade, retraining in something completely left-field or carving out a career you couldn’t have imagined on your last day in uniform. If there’s a story in it, we’ll find it.

You can read our Then & Now feature in Issue 1 to see the kind of thing we’re after – then get in touch at contact@civvymagazine.co.uk.
