Lots of guys I know in the army are getting out for the money. Many more not getting out are getting divorced. Some are getting shot at. One had half his foot blown off and a couple died 'over seas'. I don't know many with commission, though. Not much risk sitting in the officers' tent with a G & T :-)

But many people like the adrenline pumping through the veins - when someone start's shooting at you........ I would certainly do that again...

I agree. It takes a good old war to make some happy. I prefer a cold Guinness.
