By the time I had nine years in, the Army had sent me to Officer Candidate
School, Germany, and Vietnam, paid for my bachelor's degree, sent me to
the
Engineer Officer's Advanced Course, and promoted me to Captain. Hell, I
still
owed them about five years at the time. A promotion to Major and the Armed
Forces Staff College added another four years to pay back. Like I say,
carrots
and sticks.

I owe the Army a lot, but it got it's share also!

Nutin' wrong with that. You paid your dues. Many today don't. Many then
didn't.

I think the part of service that folks don't take into account is you
have signed on the dotted to take or even, give a life at any time, when
called upon to do it...
