Holy Moly that is a lot to go through

Tell me about it, I wanted to give up many times.

Congrats I remember your posts about your ordeal keep us updated now that you're "legal"
Carry safe but always carry and keep posting on your interactions

Congratulations. Reminds me when I got mine in 1997. I think the wait was about four months and at that time you could not check status on line or call. You just had to wait.

Congratulations and be safe!

Greg, congratulations! I have similar issues that I fear I am going to face. Facing redeployment and loosing my fiancé I got depressed and sought help, little did I know that by doing that might make me "unfit" as seen by the state. This was back in 2001 when I was 21. I think it is crazy as I have not been diagnosed with depression of "bi-polar" since. No treatment or meds needed since then and I have been completely normal. I sent you a message.

Well done OP! Congratulations. Always stand up for your rights.
