What was I thinking? Now I hate the man who looks back in the mirror. Every day. I let me down. I let my family down.
And I will regret it forever.

Dude
at the moment you discounted that advice, you were working with the information at hand. no more. no less.
i never did the military route but you and me and everyone else has made decisions based on what we knew, observed or felt at the moment. we made A decision and 20 seconds or 20 years later, we learned that what we knew at the moment of the decison turned out to be incomplete. That is not our problem because we tried to make a choice based on what we knew in the moment.
Don't beat yourself up too hard. take a deep breath, regroup and go forward.
(sorry prostilate, but your comments hit just a little but too close to home),
