I joined the army reserves back in 2003, trained for a year, cam home and was attached to a unit 4 hours away from my house (even though there was a unit 20 min. away). The driving wasn't really a problem; however, there was no position for me over there, i was communications and this was all medical personnel. I served no purpose to them. On the way to drill one weekend my truck blew a part out of my caliper and I was stranded, no way of making it there. I was low on money and had no transportation for a while, needless to say I couldn't make it to the next few drills. During this time I tried desperately to contact them... phone calls, emails, calling higher command in other places, even sent them certified mail... no response. I get a phone call one day asking where I've been... come on. They gave me the option of going back or taking a general discharge. I was so fed up with it I left, I couldn't handle their incompetence. I want in - air force, can I after all this???
