Took my discharge and always wondered
if I should have stayed in. No jobs for
Jet Mechanics as there were no commercial
jet aircraft in the Northwest at the time.
Even Boeing had a big layoff at the time.
I did well after going back to school after
my discharge.
Went for Electronics shooling on GI Bill.
