Don’t worry TG, the government will protect me from my own foolishness. I won’t buy ANYWHERE until I have orders in hand, and that won’t be until Feb-Mar 09. The stupidest thing I could possibly do is buy where I think I might be going, rather than where I actually go.
3 rules to a happy military life:
1. The only constant is change
2. The only guarantee is there are no guarantees
3. If you take the paycheck twice a month you go where they tell you
The moment you can no longer live with these rules you will no longer succeed in a military career.
