I got out after four years. I said, I'm out of here. I got out, went back home, went to college, went to a community college for mechanical engineering to get a mechanical engineering associate's degree. Because my thought process was, I'll get a mechanical engineering degree and then I'll get in the firearms industry. I'll go to work for somebody. FN, HK, whatever.

I was really big in FN at the time. So I really, that's kind of what I was, I want to get a mechanical engineering degree and I want to go to work for FN. So that's why I got out to do that.

Get out, which most guys did.

Geh als Pilot in die Militär, irgendwo.

You know, it's a good question. Were you worried it would be the same? Well, no, I didn't think I'd make it. Because that's the option that had the least success rate, as you can imagine. And I met numerous guys that tried out. I did not know a single guy that made it. Until right at the very end. Ich war bereit, aus der Armee zu kommen. Einer der Jungs ging und machte es.

Das plant eine Sehnsucht, die nie weggegangen ist. Ich bin rausgekommen, bin zur Schule gegangen. Ich war in den Reserven. Als ich in der Schule war, habe ich mich für die Reserven eingeladen. Ich war in der 11. Gruppe in Youngstown, Ohio. Ich gehe da einmal im Monat hoch. Ich habe es genossen. Wir haben nichts gemacht. We never jumped out of an airplane the entire time I was there. Two years.
