Would I be a fool to get out of the military?

A lot has happened over the last few months. I went to a 4 week inpatient program for stress and trauma...I got my proposed ratings for retirement and the VA...I got my orders and I'm doing my final out-processing appointment today! I've got a month and a half of terminal leave so I can get paid while we figure out where we are going to live.

I'm going to miss the people here in Nebraska... It's been a long 5 years and I've learned a lot. I'm very grateful that my job afforded me enough time to study for CLEPs and DSSTs and to take a few traditional classes. I would recommend the Air Force to anyone.

With the VA disability, my wife working, and a little help from the GI Bill we should be comfortable enough in our hometown. I look forward to taking some time off of work and finishing my degree in Michigan...
