Yeah, I need a waiver for my cholesterol. Apparently the numbers were 
pretty high, almost 300 for HDL and over 150 for LDL. Steak and beer 
will do that I guess. Doc gave a recommendation for approval and now I 
am just waiting the the powers that be to review and grant the waiver.

And CA looks like it kicks ass, the only problem with that is that I am 
too old for Airborne school and that is one of the qualifications. I was 
a mechanic while I was active, and unless you are stationed at Bragg or 
Campbell, you are not going to get airborne training. I switched to 
infantry in the Guard because 1). We don't have tanks and Bradley's in 
the CANG anymore and 2). faster promotions. I am way behind my peers. 44 
year old E-5. I am going to stay combat arms when I go in, just not sure 
what area. I really want 19D but we will see.
