Navy Mutual provides affordable life insurance and annuities to those who serve (or have served) our nation. If you are an active duty, reserve/guard, or retired servicemember in any branch of the United States military or uniformed services, we’d be honored to serve you. Are you eligible?

I was involuntarily inducted (drafted) during my 1st year (1968) of law school. I was approaching half-way through my 1L year when I got drafted. Fortunately, UC Hastings Law kept my enrollment open for four years and I went from active duty to the infantry in the CA ARNG and returned to law school. I wondered if my induction timing had anything to do with my 1968 graduation from CAL (UC @ Berkeley, CA)SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL

9/11/2001. Changed my life forever and I am still dealing with the fallout. I left a wife and THREE boys, including a newborn, on the first of three wartime deployments. One to Gitmo in 2002, one to Ft. Dix, NJ, in 2003, and then a 14 month gig to Iraq for OIF III, 2004-2005. Job/career change, resentful older boy, federal lawsuit against former employer, role confusion with my wife. Today, we have five wonderful children, ages 26-13, my wife and I are both retired, focusing on the kids, her folks, who are elderly and need daily care, the house (Honey-Do lists on steroids!), but also some daily time just for us. Cruising right along! Thanks for the question! Hooah!
