re: Military thread

Not making the military my career might be my biggest regret. My dad was field artillery...I was born at Benning, landed in Germany on my first birthday (pictures of bare housing, and the cake my mom made after scrambling to the PX and Commissary are awesome), spent my childhood as an Army brat. Can't explain why I didn't follow in his footsteps. But I imagine my experiences as a kid in a military family are much different that being on the job. Still...I greatly appreciate (and envy) you guys (and girls) that did your time!
