6 May 1992 I entered Basic Training. Had I stayed IN, I'd be 5 years from Retirement.
It's been a QUICK 15 years, I suppose. No regrets though.

“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

40 years ago may 6. I was somewhere in the central highlands of south vietnam.
When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.
You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.
