And then my first assignment was the Republic of South Korea.

That's the key, too.

The Army is the only service that did that and still does.

So the other services, you take a test, and they tell you, here's what you're eligible for, which the Army does as well.

But then they say, okay, pick your top three, and you're likely to get one of those three.

Yeah, so I did nine years as a mechanic.

And then I decided I was in Germany at the time, West Germany.

And if I don't get accepted, I'll get out.

So I had the advantage in that case.
