The battalion Command Sergeant Major called me today and left a message saying, "I have good news, call me back."
He did have good news. The Pennsylvania Adjutant General signed a two-year extension of my enlistment. My new discharge date is 30 May 2015, just after my 62nd birthday. So I now have three years and a month before I will officially be a civilian again.
