You still had your chances. My nephew is about your age. When I first met him he was a skateboard hoodlum. Then he joined the Army, served in Iraq and Afghanistan defusing IEDs, and got a college degree studying nights and weekends. The Army made him an officer in the Medical Service Corps. His last overseas gig was commander of a platoon of medics in Afghanistan, where he was one of the few in the platoon permitted to carry weapons - the rest were unarmed medics. He retired last year as a Captain.
I posted pictures of him on the old site - remember?
