Any veterans with recommendations on where to start?

by a searcher from University of Dayton in Wilmington, NC, USA
Looking for advice on where to begin. I'm active duty Navy, 8 years in, with about 1.5 years left. I have a Finance degree so not completely unfamiliar with business but it's been a long time since I've had any experience in that realm. Would appreciate any advice or resources that were beneficial in learning how to go this route.
