This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Were you in the guard? I know the Guard went through a couple different signing bonus scandals back in the day, but I haven't ever heard of the same for active duty.
I think the recruiters have a lot more leeway and control over Guard recruits, since they're all mostly operated at the state level. I know in the 90's in California the recruiters were basically just stealing enlistment and reenlistment bonuses.
