Sigh. Doctors and nurses are commissioned officers, not
inducted.

What happened to those "GIs with Type 1 diabetes" that you knew? When
did
they transmogrify into doctors with commissions?


They didn't. They were always GIs. Even draftees were referred to
as GIs. its military slang. But then, you weren't worthy of serving,
with you having been rejected as a useless defective.

Hey, I wasn't the one with the five 4Fs. You were apparently a useful
defective. d8-)


You think tahat's funny? I was born sick. I have survivied into my
mid 50's in spite of being told I wouldn't. I've survived medical
problems i was told I couldn't. You have to try a lot harder than that.

No, it's not funny. But after you called me a "useless defective," I thought
you might want to reflect on the fact that you've described yourself as a
"defective," five times over. Then you might wonder why you're saying such
stupid things.

Do you ever think about what you've typed, Michael, before you post it?
