Are you nuts, Jost, encouraging this stupidity on Matt's part. I am beginning to wonder if Matt isn't as nuts as his mother thinks. He has been told ad nauseum that the military won't take him. From what I have seen of his posts, he would never make it through basic training in any branch of the military. Plus, I sure would not want to serve with him in a combat zone. I would not be able to depend on him to "keep his head." I am saying this as an ex-Marine.
GEES Matt, give it up about the military. This sounds like some suicide wish, and this is from the ex-Marine, now psychologist.
