If I had to do it all over again, I would join the Reg Force first, and then after 20 yrs, the Reserves instead of the 10.5 yrs Res and 3 Reg I have now. I never would leave the military for a woman as I did way back when, only to have her leave me...
Hmmm.... You know what, I don't think I would change a thing. If I had to do it all over again from the same point in time, things might have been so diferent, that I may not have wanted to continue on in the military. Everything that happened in my career, the good and the bad, has had an impact on who and what I am today, and will continue to affect me into the future.
If I had to do it all over again, I would do it exactly as I did in the past.
