You'll have to figure out whether the market is slow as a whole for your field, or if it's you in specific that can't find a job (I guess ask your buddies who graduated with you / your degree). If it's only you, go into the armed forces, if it's slow as a whole, avoid the armed forces. Salary wise you'll be shooting yourself in the foot going out fighting instead of doing accounting... even if you don't work for a year or two you'll still come out ahead doing accounting if you ever get into a half respectable company.

edit: This would be a perfect opportunity to go back to school and further your future career by increasing your level of education
