I never did like the High year tenure for the enlisted ranks either. If you meet the standards for your MOS you should be able to continue serving in the Military till you have done your 30 years if you so choose. Many a good military person has been discharged since the High Year tenure was instated to reduce manning durring the peace dividend era of the US . Now that we aren't in them days any more it's time to eliminate some of them high year boot them out before retirement rules and let the members who want to serve their country during war time to serve!
BTW, what happend to all them Gays and Lesbians that wanted to join the military during peace time, for the benifits at:cd: Now that the rank and file could care less about their bed partners while the bullets are flying in Iraq?? Oops I forgot their all good Kerry Democrats and It's not their war to fight against terrorism and their spokes person Micky Moore says so!
