53. I went into the Army three months after I turned 17

Don't let anyone tell you that you don't know what's going on or that you shouldn't give the "responsible" adults a certain ration of shit.
At 17, you know more than even you think you do (and I think you're onto something here -- I stopped standing for the pledge when I was about 13 (c 1970). It pissed the North Junior High administration off no end -- but both my pinko liberal mom and, for that matter, my Republican dad stood up for my right to do it).
Add my congratulations to the stack. Go get 'em!!

Good to see someone's raising some hell out there somewhere.
