Today I got three emails from the office of Congressman Joe Pitts. One had an attachment of more than a dozen pages explaining exactly why I was not eligible for a military retirement.
I knew why. So I asked again if I could get a waiver of some kind. The Army gave me an age waiver to get beck in the Army at 54 then gave me a waiver to serve in a war after Age 60 when I volunteered to go to Afghanistan three years ago.
But no waiver for retirement.
I tried.
The Army said no.
Veteran of four wars, four enlistments, four branches: Air Force, Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard. I am both an AF (Air Force) veteran and as Veteran AF (As Fuck)
