First off, I'd like to say thanks to all who served, and especially to those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
My name in Jonathan R., I attended Valley Forge Military College through their Early Commissioning ROTC Program on a full ROTC scholarship, and was actually talking to our NG recruiter about possibly SMP'ing with 20th Group in Fort Meade (though, he might've been blowing smoke up my ass being I was a Cadet).
Shattered my wrist in 5 places (Scaphoid and Triquetrum) and didn't recover on time to contract and had to pull out of the program.
Honestly, I didn't feel the calling to be an officer as much anymore, and decided to enlist on active duty and am currently awaiting an 89D (EOD) contract, once I get my full driver's licence (thanks, New York State).
Someday, way down range, when I'm older I hope to be able to get Selected and join Special Forces.
Until then, I'll be expanding my knowledge reading posts on the forum.
God Bless America.
