When my kids were young and in school, I used to help them buy bulk boxes of candy, mark them up, and then sell them to their classmates at school. Any chance you could do this with your military companions? Learning how to sell would be a skill that will serve you well once you are done with your service.

Hey.
I'm 19 years old, I'm a soldier (not American in case you're wondering) since in my country we have to go to the army for 2y8m. I work in an office, I'm not a combat soldier, so I have a decent amount of time for myself.
So in my free time, I've read unscripted (Awesome book, loved it), and tons of other books that give you basic entrepreneurial mindset and self-help books. That's basically what I do in my free time. The problem is that I'm starting to get sick of only reading and reading and I feel like I'm making no progress.
Do you have any ideas of what I could do in my free time at the office?

(btw, if you don't have any ideas for me, I would be glad if you could at least recommend some good book\s or reading material, thanks=)

Thanks.

Great idea, but I think doing that in the army is kind of illegal, I will check that out though, thanks!

Devote your free time to brainstorming that exact question, whats next? That's currently where i'm at(18 yo) Focus on what the vehicle is that will take you down the fast lane. Business ideas, streams of income..once you think you have found an area you want to be, develop your skill set in that. Focus on less "general entrepreneurial" books and maybe books focused on a more narrow subject. Goodluck mate, Godspeed.
