[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 4004983, member: 13337"] Are you asking about whether I would make the same choice to enlist back when I did? If so I would have to say yes,,, It was 1970 and I had a pregnant girlfriend. I was working a minimum wage job just barely surviving myself,,, When I learned about the medical benefits given to military dependents,,, I decided that this was the only way I could afford to take care of a wife and kid. I made the decision to enlist in the USAF just a few days before I drew Number Six (yes, zero zero six) in the second draft lottery,,, Given those circumstances I would do the exact same thing for the exact same reason. I didn't dodge military service,,, But I damn sure tried to dodge Viet Nam. Didn't work though,,, I didn't do a full year there but my TDY was a true ordeal. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
