Good day all,

Had enough of this Navy life. Too long to go into in a post but it's gotten to the point that whatever I would get from my retirement at the age of 60 isn't worth 3 more years of these people.

To save my 20 I am looking into the Guard. In contact with them right now. Just the basic feel out stage.

So what can you Army folks tell me about what I may get myself into? I know I have to do the full Boot (at 43), I know I will most likely take a lose of rank from E6 to E5 but will be back eligable within a year (retirement is at the highest rank attanded so I will always get E6 retirement pay), and I will now be subject to recall from both National and State.

Thanks,
Jim
