I would have been in the airforce now. Maybe i wouldn't have crashed and burned into a drug and alcohol pit following feeling worthless for being blocked by a recruiter unwillingly to encourage me to keep trying as i now know a stutter couldn't have kept me out if i was as determined a man as i am now. Maybe nothing would have changed and the doors i went through were different shapes and sizes, but eventually led to the same destination.
