My dad was in the navy back in the 50s.  He made it to an island but the only boat he every went out on were grandpa's deep sea fishing boats.  He was a Seabee who helped build the base on the Outer Banks of NC that was later decommissioned.  But his time in service did pay the bulk of his cost of going to vet school.

Indeed. I calculated once that I used about $14k in VA college benefits. Back in '77-'83 that wasn't a bad deal. Of course, I still had to work, but it helped.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
