    Understand where you're coming from as I retired from the USAF in 1997 after 20 years. I could have stayed longer but 20 years was enough.

    Congrats fellow soldier! Retired in 93 and it sure does make one look back on the events (good and bad) that come with military service. Enjoy!

    Thank you all for the kind words!  I have no intention of retiring JUST yet....  Ironic how my FNG's come in and where born AFTER I joined the Army.  They could be my kids at this point.

    Actually Nate have you ever looked at the relative value of each year of service..... Specifically the value of the years served after becoming retirement eligible? (I am on terminal leave now btw)
