Personal Note

 

Enlisted and trained as an infantryman. However an ankle injury at my first duty station forced me to change my specialty to an optician, fabricating military glasses (often referred to as "birth control" glasses; because they are so ugly no one would want to date you...)I eventually decided to take an "early-out" deal and left the Army.
