Same here. I'm only 32. I didn't reenlist because I was in when slick willie was running us into the ground. I couldn't wait to get out. I have seriously considered going back, but I have 3 kids now and a wife. I'm not sure if I could stand a 80% pay cut! LOL.

Sometimes I feel guilty that I'm living such a comfortable life, when my friends and family are searching for Al Queda in Afganistan or patroling the cities of Iraq.

We thank GOD for men/women who chose to reenlist or even sign-up to serve during these times. It sure humbles you when you think about it. I mention this to people at work when they complain to me about their pathetic problems...it usually shuts them up quick...and they just "drive-on".

We DO thank God for them.....every single day! Prayer is powerful. Do not feel guilty about not re-enlisting! When Clinton was in, we in the military KNEW what was going on! He not only didn't support the military, he really didn't give a damn about the military. Teddy's quote: "Lie after lie after lie after lie" He oughtta know!
