I didn't have the points........yet 
I would have, though..if I didn't get discharged. I wanted to be career. Not a general, I wanted to be Command Sergeant Major. Dont get me wrong, I had a picture of Shinseki in my billet (though I felt betrayed when he gave everybody a black beret). I wanted to do it as infantry all the way. I opted not to ride a desk, and that was probably a mistake. Pride man, pride...it fucked me. I still believe it was attainable, but that's pride again, probably, lol.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
