Sorry - I was being real.
Flying was my number one priority AFTER I got out of the military (or Federal Law Enforcement if that didn't work out).
I was doing my minimum time regardless of what I wanted to do or was assigned to do in the military.
I don't think that those who put service first need to be called BS slingers.
