Well, I am a very different person today, than when I was a child. Back then I was in constant fear and kept quiet and to myself often. Today, I tell people I was born on a PT field in Ft. Jackson, SC at the age of 18. The person who inhabited my body prior to that time is no longer in existence. Good riddance! This is one of the reasons I LOVE the US Army. It made me the person I am today.
