Default Should I leave everything behind me? or stay at a job i'm not at all sure about?

I'm at a crossroads. I'm in a certain path - a military program - which has my life planned out for the next decade.
Lately i've come to realize that this isn't something I love doing, nor is it something i am passionate about, or have ever been passionate about.
I am now in the last stretch of the course. after I finish the course - quitting would become a much harder option, involving breaking contract and so on.
another thing that i fear is warping my judgment is that this is one of the most (if not THE most) prestigious jobs in my country, and it promises a secure future, financially and also status-wise.
i can quit now, and deal with the consequences (i would be losing security, social status, and some work options in the future) or go for it, and later if i want to quit - it will be very hard, but possible - may take a few months and some serious cash - but i could live with it i presume.
btw, im 22, single. so no other mouths to feed, and i can still do other things with my life..
