Hind sight is 20/20. If I would have known then what I know now, I would have stayed in the U.S. Air Force and have retired a few years ago. I was only active for a couple of years but I can honestly say that they were the best damn 2 years of my life!

You did your time. Never regret the decisions made in life.

Our current Administration is tying the hands of Military Leaders and personnel.

We greatly appreciate your support and thoughts.

The military in general is down sizing. The only ones that are getting more funding on the Spec Ops community. If you had a regular job the military doesn't really look to take prior service. I tried getting back to the Regular Army as an officer but couldn't the Guard is a bit more grateful for prior service. So you may want to look there.

Thanks comrades! Just wish there was at least something I could do to make a difference, even if it's in the civilian world, to help stop terrorism and organizations such as ISIS. It's hard watching the havoc they create on the local media and there's really nothing you can do to help.
