He wants back in on active duty. He has been unemployed since he got out, 2 years ago.

Ya think. :D he's got the HP now, but the Brass will still try to make the beast with two backs with him, that or they'll gargle his balls. :D
They should make his pay retroactive.

Bick will know that answer
Respect for Capt. Swenson. I'm not in the armed forces, but I work with many who have served and we work on stuff that helps save service member lives. Thanks to him, and thanks to all of you who go into harm's way on my and all Americans' behalf.
