Back again, had to talk to the BIG boss, the Officer In Charge about my re-enlistment thursday since it is a day off. Still going through with it and he is still good to go to serve as my re-enlisting officer. Can't wait to take the oath of enlistment at 10,000 feet with Mt. Fuji as my backdrop.
I feel bad for all my old friends in high school. 99% of them are stuck in the area, approx within a 50 sq mile radius from their parents home, having never gone more than 1 or two states away from home.
I on the other hand have been to multiple different countries, lived in Japan, been on aircraft carriers, flown in Naval Airplanes, about to ride in a helecopter. Been to the Herapolis and Pamukale (one of the natural wonders of the world) in Turkey, been to castles in Portugal, and many more things besides!
Even if i die tomorrow, i have enjoyed my life!! my only regret is that i have not married or had kids yet, but that will happen in due time!
