    The worst part of retirement for me was moving from an organization (military) that demands accountability, responsibility, transparency and fosters pride into a civilian world that shares none of these values. City and county government is a prime example and seems to be full of people that focus on one thing and one thing only, a paycheck. In other words, I am blessed to have served in the military.

    The worst part about having served was not being there for my family when they needed me.

    The Book says you got to go out. It doesn't say anything about coming back in.
