Additional income and a side job with zero scheduling conflicts with an airline employer. Also there are GI Bill benefits for school and potentially flight training. If you join an operational guard/reserve squadron, you'll meet a lot of major airline pilots (networking). Also intangibles such as service to country and camaraderie.

All that said, don't join the military unless you do have a motive to serve, potentially under arduous conditions.
