You can't tell it now, but I was TOO SKINNY to pass the physical. Needed to weigh six more pounds based upon my height. So I stayed home. But my family has a history of service, Dad WWII, brother 20+ years, BIL 20+ years, nephew 20+ years, oldest brother 4 years in the Navy, son in National Guard 6 years, two grandsons currently in National Guard (they have been home from Iraq about a year now.)And don't forget. Lowe's offers 10 percent to active and retired military every day. But you have to ask and show your ID.
