It was the aftermath of good times that caused the Marines to ASK that I leave. Seems the withdrawal seizures after binge drinking scared them more than they scared me.

I'm still amazed they gave me an Honorable Discharge...

But I still wear my Leatherneck kilt in honor of my late little brother's service as a Drill Instructor rather than my most inglorious Cold War service. The irony is I think he enlisted in the USMC because I had.
