I'm wrecking everything but the former Warsaw Pact
A short update:
I've been in the Fort Sill Warrior Transition Unit since April of 2012. Apparently, my PTSD was so bad that USAREC couldn't use me after 2 hospitalizations, and now the Army can't use me anymore, either. I started my Medical Evaluation Board in January, and will get the paperwork telling me how much the Army and VA think my life is worth on monday. What started with a damn near suicide, and ended with alcohol fueled self destructive behavior is now going to end with a medical retirement, a pittance of money each month, and an empty hole of self-worth to refill. I have mad plans though! Doesn't everyone? My wife and I are expecting a child in February, I have a chance to work overseas making mad bank, if I choose to take it, and shit, who knows what else. I might even be able to find a 2nd shift job at a gas station with my qualifications! Hopefully I can make things happen, raise this kid right, and get my shit together, all while trying to figure out how to be a gunsmith at some point in my life. I figure I've got about 40 years to make my dreams come true.
