“College money is a big plus.”

You don't have to worry about being in debt forever paying for your college tuition. I know what I want to do as a career now. And I think I'm a better person for everything that the Army's taught me.

But above that, going to Iraq was so fulfilling. I mean, you'll never know how fulfilling until you actually see the look on the Iraqi people's faces and hear them thank you, as best they can. Just how happy most of them are that we're there to help them. Just to know how much you helped another country. You see the parents crying because you just helped them rebuild a house, or renovate a school for their children, so their children can actually go to school. It's a very fulfilling deed.
