I just wanted to thank all of you for making this the amazing community that it is. My life is going to change tomorrow. Friday, June 16th i'm signing my name on the dotted line and swearing my oath and entering the United States Army.
Many of you know i've been one of the few 2A activists fighting for gun rights in New York, in the heart of the dragon's lair, the state Assembly. Well, i'm not giving up on that fight just yet. But I have to answer my country's call to duty. It's somewhat fitting that i'll be joining officially two days after the Army's 231st birthday as well.
I won't be leaving for basic training until early September, so I will continue to contribute both to our community here and to the 2A movement in New York throughout the summer. After basic, i'll be entering Officer Candidate School. I guess those college degrees will be worth something afterall!
Going before that Officer Candidate review panel was tough, intimidating, and exciting all at the same time. But i'm ready for this challenge and the unanimous recommendation they gave me along with the support of some very special friends and my family gives me all the confidence in the world.
Again, I just wanted to say thank you to all the men and women who have made this a great community to spend many nightime and weekend hours at. Thank you to all of those who have served before me as well. Your sacrifices paved to way for today.
