I bet I have the shortest "career" of any of you out there.

2 1/2 hours in the VA Army National Guard Recruiting office. Found out that Asthma is literally a show-stopper regarding recruitment. :banghead:

I envy those who have served and wished that I could have had the opportunity to do so.

Thank you
