    Today is my first day as a civilian again. I medically retired from the Army as of 1201 this morning. Here’s to a new life of fun and adventure, and plenty of time with my family.

    Extreme boredom sets in perhaps in 2 weeks or so. :D

    Do you think going from such a structured environment to one with no real structure will be an issue USArmy?

    Congrats bro. I retired 4 years ago after 24 years. Loving waking up to get paid. Not loving the extra 25 lbs I've added.

    More then likely, but if I learned anything in the Army, it was how to adapt.

    Thank you for your service! We may not agree on all the politics in this country, but one thing for sure is to always support our troops.
