I joined the military and specifically chose to be an infrantryman because I knew that my civilian job would be in the IT field. I should have perhaps followed the advice of the recruiter and followed the military intelligence path. My military experience was fantastic and is where I lived "give it your all" and "take charge of the situation" mentality to approaching life. The biggest compliment our unit received while I was in was from an active duty Army Ranger who was attached with us for his reserve component. He was very impressed with the way we trained. I attributed this to many of our leaders having been deployed over the years.I was in a Scout platoon in the now dismantled CSC 1/136. I went through PLDC though I took an early ETS during a downsizing of force in 1992.
