Call me young and naïve, but this scares/worries/saddens me a bit… the term “was” implies the past, serving my country with other highly trained and self motivated men is why I am working so hard to earn a slot in SF. It is why I am not pursuing a career in the field of my college studies, as I am sick of being “worthless” and working with unmotivated amoral people who think the world owes them something or everything. I think I am doing this for the right reasons, I just hope there is some filter within the pipeline that prevents those with the wrong motivations from polluting what I hope to someday join.
