To those who have supported me and others interested:

It is official. Tomorrow at 12:30 p.m. I will complete my " final out "

which is the final paperwork that discharges me from the U.S. Army. I will

officially end my service after midnight tomorrow (Fri. Oct 1). I was

administratively discharged under Chapter 14-12c, Commission of a Serious

Offense, of AR 635-200. Chapter 14 is the chapter covering Misconduct. I

will receive a general, under honorable conditions, discharge. I would have

served until my normal end of enlistment contract next May 2000. I refused to

take the anthrax vaccine in June 1999. My commanders were fearful themselves

but were in an awkward position.

Thank you to those of you have supported me in many ways through this

time. I am available for a short period of time at the following telephone

number (912)355-8879. I will be leaving the area shortly.

Sincerely,

Shepard

SGT, USA (will be " former " tomorrow evening)

Good Luck !! To all those interested, I met this outstanding

gentleman... not only is he an outstanding gentleman, he is an outstanding

soldier which the military has now lost. Contrary to some of command's

popular belief that there are three bodies to take the place of one person

leaving the gate, this is no longer true. The quality of person's being

allowed to enter the gates is scary to say the least. Another quality

soldier lost to the controversy program. It's a sad day........ Keep in

touch, !!, and good luck to you, your wife, and your family!!

True, but also remember that EVERY branch of the service(except of the Marine

Corps) is SHORT on recruits this year. The exception, being the marines, is

not exactly suprising, since the Marines recruit in a much different(and I

believe honest) manner than does the other services. People want to join the

Marine Corps to be Marines, not to get college money.

Also remember that the military HAS lowered the recruiting standards of

individuals that are entering the service now. When I was at a basic

training base for almost 3 years(I only got out a year or so ago), I remember

countless stories of recruiters bending the truth...no, lying....to get a

soldier in. I remember a female recruit from Kentucky who was on Prozac and

she had been treated for depression, and she said that the Army recruiter

told her to " stop taking Prozac now, but don't tell anyone that I told you to

stop. "

The military has increased its number of recruits who have not completed high

school either. They have reduced the standards since the recruiting

accessions are down, but by doing this they have also reduced the quality of

soldiers who enter into the military these days. Furthremore, the military

has also started to treat the soldiers better in basic training so that they

" don't quit " so that the number of soldiers failing out of basic training

isn't very large. What's the end result of this???

I saw a memo signed by Gen Dennis Reimer and distributed to the basic

training units on my post(memo singned on Jan 96 or so) and the memo said

that approximately 33% of the soldiers graduating from basic training do not

stay in the military for their entire first term of service. In other words,

they are kicked out since they cannot accomodate the physical or mental or

behavioral standards required to be a member of the military. In other

words, basic training is so easy and soft now that the soldiers who graduate

from there obviously can't meet the standards in the military these days.

And remember, if you can't complete your first term of service, then you

don't get any college money. Oh well.

What's the reason for so many people leaving the military these days and then

so few people entering the military??? Is it the economy??? NO. After all,

the economy was booming in the 80's and we didn't have any problems getting

people in the military then. The reason??? Decreased federal spending on the

military's benefits, and massively increased deployments around the world, on

social missions like keeping the peace(as if that's not an oxymoron) in

Bosnia, Haiti, or Kosovo.

Let's not forget Somalia, where we helped to feed the Somalis and stop them

from dying of starvation, and then they killed 18 US Army soldiers in October

18, 1993 in an ambush in downtown Mogadishu. Another reason that so few

people are entering the military now is that the military hasn't marketed

itself well. The military has done a very, very poor job of standing up for

itself during scarce federal budgets and missions around the world keeping

the peace. Also, the military has done a very bad job in its new,

friendlier, caring atmosphere, where there are required classes on

Consideration of Others, and Army Values. Of course, the man in the White

House, since he " loathes the military " , isn't doing any good either.
