This guy’s journal drew me in pretty quickly. Even though he was joining the national guard, he was coming from a very similar situation as I was. He went into basic training at the age of 36 and also is leaving behind a wife and two girls. (I have a wife, 2 girls and a son). Like me he is currently in the I.T. field and has always wanted to join the army...it became now or never time.
