Had a long discussion with my active-duty military son about the death-jab. This is a tough decision for him. He has 13 years in, doing well, fast promotions, commendations, tours in 6 countries. I feel like I'm being selfish, but have told him he's welcome back home if he'll tell them where to shove it. He knows where I stand on this matter, but doesn't want to give up now with only 7 years left to retirement. I'm afraid of the consequences. I sincerely hope we're all wrong about this, but terrified we're not. Been talking to God all day, asking for guidance for he and I both. I know I'm not the only person going thru this shit and really feel for all that are. Lord help us all.

He's got a GI bill he can use for the 4 years immediately after getting out. Get a degree then return to work for the DoD or as an officer and reclaim his retirement. I think the vaccine stuff will be over in under 4 years.
Plus the retirement is only 50% of base pay, nice but it's really not a lot. Add in the inflation rate and he'll probably be worse off.
