Because most military jobs don't involve killing people, and are basically bureaucratic in nature. Moreover, the type of person who finds a career in the military appealing would also find a career in corporate appealing.
In the past, corporations were modeled after the military, so the transition was relatively easy. Today, however, career military don't have "what it takes" to succeed in the corporate world because of the kind of "stupid politically incorrect shit and sucking up to some prolapsed vagina of a boss" bullshit so prevalent in the corporate world. Ironically, this shit is getting so out of hand that the military (US) is starting to model itself after corporate. Another sign of impending collapse of the US empire.
