re: What motivated you to join the military?

It is an experience that only those of us who have served can ever really explain to each other. I've seen and done more than most people will in life and will walk away with stories and friendships that normal civilians won't experience.

I once thought I was "too smart" for this job, but when you're actually in the inside, you quickly learn how much intelligence you actually need for a lot of these jobs. A lot of the greatest people in history have had military backgrounds, so I guess that says something.

I have an education, no debts and continue to save money, further my education and serve my country. If you being the president of a corporation or a process operator, is what you chose to do and makes you happy, then congrats to you. Just remember that this country is free for a reason, and continues to be, because of the great people who serve. Your position in life doesn't make you any better than me or the next man.
