Alas, but I considered my self a soldier that just happened to be commissioned. Others considered me as handicapped because I had no neck. Art Hutchins considered me a refrigerator as he took pride in demonstrating one day when he attemped to open my dress whites jacket and reach in for a beer. And Jake Jakovenko was amused because when he put me thru a crash SCUBA program I had negative boyancy and didn't need a weigh belt when we were using Dragers. And most of my superiors considered me as the Anti-Christ when it came to meeting their ideal of what an officer should look like. So if I stayed in respectable shape it was only to be able to run with the big dogs all of which were also soldiers regardless of rank.
