Started off thinking I might become a pilot in the RAF. Volunteered for the Bundeswehr instead. Changed my mind, and came to the US. Bored with ROTC so I enlisted, two years w/1st Cav in Ft. Hood, then light infantry, OCS, field artillery... And now I work in advertising. Go figure. (Similar hours, but lots more money, no P.T., and I've only been shot at once.)
