I would have to say that G.I. Joe influenced my decision but it was the last issue of the comic book that made me really curious. I read about the ups/downs of a life in the military. I asked my father (a veteran of the vietnam war) as well as my uncles who were veterans of both WWII and Korea if what was written was true. I heard pretty much the same response from all of them. "I hated it with all my heart while I was there but still wish I could go back." I did not understand how this was possible until I enlisted and deployed. Eight years later, I would not trade this life for anything else I have done nor do I have any desire to do anything else.

I thank The Morals,Ethics ,and Principles that GIJOE taught me. It made me into the man i am today.
