Actually I had an appointment to the military academy, and REALLY wanted to serve, but at the time, I really wanted something "flying".

I qualified in every respect, EXCEPT for my bad eyes, and even correctible with questionable surgery, I'd probably NEVER fly, so I went a different way.

I don't regret what I did, but sometimes I wish I had served.

My dad retired after 30 years, both brothers, my sister, uncles.....and about 1/2 dozen cousins.....All served. I have one cousin out of Ft Campbell currently in Afghanistan....

Our troops NO MATTER HOW YOU FEEL.....deserve our respect....PERIOD.

Thanks,
