Astronomy is spot-on. My little man is heading into his last year of high school. He, like me, needs some direction and maturity. I found it in the military joining as an SF baby. BUT...I cannot in good conscience advise him to join these days. Sadly, he's looking at maybe going into the Coast Guard to go hunt drug runners in the carib; or do a "quaint alternative to military service' such as the Air Force.

We talked the other day and he's a little enamored with shooting bad guys in the face. I told him if that is what he wants, then he'd have to go to Ranger Batt as I have an issue with him going into a straight-leg infantry unit in Biden's dementia-addled, vacillating and frenetic policies. I really DO think this doddering old fool will get us into a war to direct attention away from his failures. At least he'll be with warriors should that come to pass.
