It's not really about what we think.
If it appeals to you, you may want to seriously consider it. It definitely sounds like a respectable job, in my opinion (In fact, it's something I've considered myself). Just make sure you're familiar with the realities that come with the career... being a translator, especially within the military aspect. Realize, among other things, you may not go where you'd like to go, and you may have to say things you may not want to say. These are just possibilities, of course, and they may not necessarily be the case, but if you're willing to accept these circumstances, I think there's a good chance you could enjoy the job.
Do some research.
