Back in a different lifetime, I was in the army

[mopinko]

5. i was shocked to find out how little active duty folks

know about what comes next. ie- my nephew was a major in the army, jr rotc to flag officer to just short of a star. still active duty when he advised his nephew to enlist to follow his dream of being a nurse. was a surgical nurse at reed when his 2 yrs was over.
went home to cali to get his rn and was told- you have to start at square 1, and you cant even be an emt.

if i guy who commanded a base, served 20 yrs at that point, didnt know this, how many of the guys who sign up to get skills they think they can get good money for know this is how it's rigged?
and the reason it's rigged- the student loan lobby. they arent content to have vets use their bennies, they want to make them use them.
the passed a bill on this in cali- the sponsor was targeted and lost his next race. the bill was repealed in the next session. (bill came about will a lot of push from my bro, said nurse's dad.)

my nephew served in the obama wh after this. not only did he bring it up w his cic, my bro took a west wing tour and left a note in obama's medicine chest about it. got a visit from the ss.

and nobody but nobody in power admits to even knowing this is going on.
