[CLUE-Talk] Going to war, how much to pay people

[Don Collier]

Marine Corps Infantry!

I stayed in for 10 years and then the wife gave me the choice, stay in or
her.  I can't blame her though, in the 10 years that I was in I was probably
home for only 6.  Being infantry didn't help much either.  Whenever
something got a bit nutty somewhere she would stress that I was going to go.
