Nope, much to my father's displeasure, I didn't retire from the military. It's kind of funny.

My dad was a lifer. He retired as a Master Chief after 21 years in the US Navy. I was total opposite.

When I went to the recruiter they handed me a paper that asked:

Have you ever used:


Marijuana..............yes
LSD......................yes
Cocaine.................yes
Heroin...................yes
ect.......................yes
ect.......................yes
ect.......................yes
ect.......................yes
When I handed the recruiter that paper he tore it up and handed me another, saying I would have a better chance to get in if I answer 'no'.

Then after 13 months I was finally discharged because of drug use. Oh well, it's not like I was unwilling to fight or do my job. I got what I wanted out of it any way. I got a skill, the VA and a general under honorable conditions discharge.

It did kind of piss off dear old dad though. :rastasmoke:
