Ok, we all seem to agree that experience is valuable, but on the flipside of that, how important is it to have a degree? I'm getting out of the Navy after 8 years, two of which I was a Staff Pickup at Prototype. I have a BS in HR management, but from the people I've talked to that are out of the Navy, and have been out at least 8 years, it sounds like an enginering degree is necessary. Any thoughts?
