Wife’s cancer prompts man to enlist at age 39
« on: October 19, 2009, 12:40:19 PM »
It's a rough time these days for many.  Not to make any comparisons but read this story and see what this guy is doing after losing his job and with a wife with cancer.  This guy is inspiring.

Wow, they have it tough.  I have often wondered what the upper age limit is for the Army these days.  I have 6 years under my belt in the Army already - (counting all my reserve duty) - but I was a young man.
This sounds like a very tough, but a good decision for his family.
