If I had a checklist of things that I accomplished, I'd say I got a maximum out of it
1) Shoot rifles chuck grenades, fire an anti tank missile, ? check
2) Went over seas? yup
3) Jumped out of an airplane? Yup
4) Rapelled out of a helicopter? yup
5) got to play the bad guy? yup
6) Got into a drunken bar fight? Yup
7) Got to totally flumox a Admiral, without him knowing it? Yup
8) Got to parade through a city? yup
9) got to travel in the back of an armored vehicle? Yup
10) Got to do a peace keeping deployment? Yup
11) Got to take place in an actual battle? nope, thank god
12) Use my uniform to get chicks? Big time
There were a lot more things that I did, but the cool thing was that everyday was an amazing amount of fun for me. My biggest regret was not staying in and making a career out of it, but at the time, the pay was lousy, and the government really didn't support us at all.

If #12 and #6 are related I really want to hear that story
