What should you do?
I would recommend that you be proactive and just JOIN UP!
Do a 4 year tour and rack up some benefits. The Air Force is pretty nice.

You are needing it for financial aid, then you are undraftable as long as you are attending college, post college if there was to be a draft you are then eligible to be an officer, so you're safe while in school and afterwards you can land a safer position.

As a former Sailor, I assert that there can be horrific deaths in the Navy just as bad or worse than those sleeping in the dirt. Fires are the main concern aboard a vessel, and burning to death is not a good thing. Not to mention drowning if you are blown off the ship or if it sinks. There is nothing less horrifying about dying at sea, and sometimes, a lot of times, it can be much worse than dying on land. If you don't drown, you could be adrift for days or weeks or even months, and you will dehydrate, which is another horrible way to die. Dying quickly is in fact less likely at sea than it is on land, unless you are right where a torpedo or missile impacts the hull of your ship.
