I am proud of my military service.
Knowing now what I didn't know then, I don't think I would have joined.
I was a bad fit with the Army. While I had some fun, I was in general pretty unhappy. It ultimately led to my being crippled.
The person I am today would have joined the Marines. The person I was at 18 should not have joined.
I don't feel my recruiter said anything that was untrue. There was just so damn much that was unsaid.

??? I always got the impression that you loved every minute you were in military service, and planned to go career. Did I misunderstand you?
ReplyDeleteYou didn't misunderstand what I said.
