Military Man's Second Chance
“Why do you want to be an EMT?”
Tim cleared his throat.
“Well, sir, I was a medic in the Army, and I loved it. I’d like to pursue that path in civilian life.”
“Honorable discharge?”
“Yes sir, a medical separation. I was wounded in Afghanistan.”
John leaned back in his chair.
“It sounds to me like you weren’t happy about being discharged.”
“No, sir, I wasn’t. I’d planned to retire from the Army twenty years from now. But it is what it is.”
“I wasn’t either when it happened to me,” the program director confided. “I was in the Marines. And like you, I planned on being a career man. But small arms fire during Desert Storm altered my path.”
