Well TRF I have submitted my paperwork to exit the Army to attend Law School. I will exit with 10 years, 3 deployments, great duty stations, and a TON of experience. I went from Enlisted to Officer, and got a masters degree for free.

I'm keeping my TRF name as it has a double meaning. I entered the Army in 20(03) and my current Pay Grade is an 03, a CPT.

So, to wrap it up, it was a pleasure serving the people of the United States, and if we go to war again, and I'm able to serve, I will.

I will not be joining the reserves because I want all my weekends.

Thank you for your service and good luck with law school. Maybe once you're done you can be TRF's resident law expert!!

Thanks for your service. Good luck in the future and don't forget to make a copy of your medical records and file a claim with the VA. You deserve to be compensated for any disabilities you may have incurred while on active duty. See a Veterans Service Officer or visit the local VA regional office. if you still have the chance I recommend to attend any transition class the Army may provide, the VA reps are normally there to brief about your benefits.

Good luck! Tim in Hawaii

kcmo · 4 April 2013, 03:01 AM

Kudos to you! I'm sure you will have continued success in the future!

TheVTCGuy · 4 April 2013, 03:04 AM

Army Guy!

I salute you sir!

I did 11 years six months and also left the service an O-3 (Navy LT). BUT.... your departure is more envious then mine. See, The Navy and I didn't agree on some things so my leaving was... less then amicable.

Oh hell, I got kicked out! But you sir, I congratulate again.

You'll always be a soldier, it never leaves, other soldiers will know you by the way you carry yourself, the way you dress, the way you act. Stand easy, once a warrior, always a warrior.

The very best wishes in your new profession.
