Clearing sucked for me because all the civilians made me run around doing crap I never needed to do. They made me take off my DOD stickers and then go get new ones ! Real army shit. The best part was getting to leave and not have to ever report for CQ or staff duty !
Ya but the civilian world is hard to adjust too. I would almost go back but I like the freedom more. My dogs puppies appreciate it more because Im not getting deployed every year.
There are worse ways to get through life. Have a Happy New Year.
