For a man who loves the country dearly, it hurts not being able
to wear that green uniform, put on the FBO, the camo and chiong at
the enemy to protect the homeland that we so deeply want to
protect. It hurts that one can only watch others go to battle with
pride to fight for the one thing they believe in, FREEDOM.
Fortunately, I am not such a man. 
neither am I. and I am still on the holding list since my ORD in
1998
