Amen brother, thank you for your service! I'm sick and tired of all the hippy dippy biased crap on the news (which is why I refuse to watch 90% of it.)
Where else are they going to work? Have you seen the price of college/health care lately? Oh, no you haven't because your college/health care is paid for.
I'll be joining you in the Navy shortly my friend, I'll be going off to basic this summer! Loved the stats!

When I joined up, I was homeless, broke and alcoholic. It was like coming home.
