"I am 68 & a female but IF I could, I'd sign up tomorrow.

Well ma'am it's the the thought that counts. When I was 18 in 1968 the Army wouldn't take me because I'm legally blind in my left eye. So I tried the Air Force and talked the Doctor at the physical into passing me. I volunteered for Vietnam and they sent me to Korea. The first thing I did when I got to Korea was to volunteer for Vietnam again, and that's where I spent my 20th birthday. And, like you, if I thought they'd take me, I'd enlist tomorrow. God bless you! And to Jim Robinson I say "Thank you!"

God Bless America!

And you would be standing in line. You are not alone in your sentiments.
