LOL! Well, things can go wrong.. Wash out of A school and you are fresh meat for whatever the machine is craving at the time.

There were a lot of guys planning to be Advanced ETs that ended up as Radiomen. I wasn't one of em.

My only regret was that the recruiter never really attempted to ply me with OCS but, then again I was pretty straight forward with him as to the odds of my reenlisting after my six was up.
