Could be an interesting way to get new players involved.....
I know of at least one member of this list who already plays characters based HEAVILY on themselves. Can't say they do it particularly well, but who am I to say really...
What's the reasoning behind the 5 minutes? Is that all the notice they get before something catastrophic?
Something you'll need to keep a firm grasp on is skills. Many people IRL think they're much better at things than the rules say they would be (a 23 yr old civilian isn't going to have a lot of points to allocate).
Stats are another issue. I believe somebody once worked out a method of converting to game stats, but I've no idea where to even begin looking for it.
