I wouldn't change a thing that would change the way the stars aligned for me ... I met my wife and had three beautiful daughters... Any changes or decisions or delays would have caused me to miss out on the final outcome of my life.... Life is a game of inches...

Three things: pay the damn $1200 for the GI Bill, don't mention your persistent back pain at re-enlistment time, or better yet - join ROTC in college before joining the military and busting ass in the enlisted ranks.

Back in 1991 I was told in boot camp that I had to pay in $1200 in order to use the Montgomery GI Bill. That was $100 a month in beer money, so I said nope.
