Only 33 years?! Slacker.

@cynical13
I'm a quitter, what can I say? Tried it for a few years, found I didn't like it, so I retired early ;P

@Rasta

Much love and thank you for your service, good sir!

@cynical13 I'm third generation. My grandfather was the first to volunteer for WWI and later WWII, and my father went into the Army, so I went into the Navy. It's all I've known

@Rasta

My grandfather and cousin on my mother's side and an uncle on my father's side served. I didn't have the same calling, but I thought long and hard about it after high school before making my decision.

@cynical13
it's not for everyone. People think you heroic to serve a decade in peacetime. Sure, you give up things and have less freedom than others, but there's plenty of sacrifice outside the military
