Hanging in there and wondering if the National Guard would take me at 60. They have National Guard EOD units now you know.

Yeah ....that was a real suprise. Reserve and NG units. Guess robotics replaces hands on ...time on target for the tech now . I was told that hand entries are rare as hens teeth in todays Oplans. Ahh for the good old days.... when men were men and sheep were afraid !

Last I left the policy was if ya were gone for five and a wakeup you had to go back thru basic school regardless of your basic, senior or masterblaster crab.

I figured at the very least they'd let us old guys fill in back here in the stateside units so the pups could go chase their tails over there.....:o)

Hope ya find you a spot ya like !........DynCorp or SAIC are looking for instructors BTW !

Stay Safe !
