Good Ol' Doc Andrews. Half the guys he didn't kick out he probably scared away. :)

Ha. He probably processed my DAD when he went into the Marines in the 60s.

On that note... I was in the exact same barracks as my Dad was... 35 years later. Same Company, etc. Weird.

At least you're not going through the Knoxville MEPS. The Doctor that had oversight there had been the head doctor at that MEPS since the 60s... with picture on the wall to prove it. He had to be in his 80s. Man couldn't tell a foot from a hand.

If I had it to do all over again, I would have joined the regular army and not dealt with the good ol' boy network that permeates the TN National Guard. From my early days in the 212th Engineers out of Monteagle to my last year in the 278th, if you weren't part of the inner circle that consisted of senior NCO's and their drinking buddies, your chances at advancement were limited.

Exactly, the NG's promotion system is a load of s---.
