To: Former Military Chick
She wanted to name the baby Africa. Michael didn't. They compromised on Asia.

Just from that line, I draw the following summary:

Liberal chick. Joined the military to get a free ride for college. Learned that, gee whiz, militaries go overseas to fight. Now wants out.

Perhaps I'm being harsh, but this dame isn't fit to wear that uniform. Give her a dishonorable discharge and get her the hell out of the service before she f---s it up even more.

Dude, read a bit more carefully. She was already out. She didn't want to be called back up. Big difference.

She had enlisted during her senior year at Pinellas Park High School. A recruiter approached her several times. She didn't really want to go, but she didn't know what else to do.

She told the recruiter "no." Why did he keep coming back? Let's take no for an answer and sign up people who are enthusiastic not reluctant. Wasn't the best time to "get her the hell out of the service" before she even got in? If it takes a hard sell, that's not exactly an ideal recruit and potentially more trouble than useful as it turned out to be here.

Somehow I get the feeling if they were the type of folks who would have considered "America" They just wouldn't be so addled with angst right now
