The millitary is a touchy subject among survivors of the Troubled Teen Industry. Military style programs have done a lot of damage to a lot of people, including many of our friends. But for a number of us, the military has been a saving grace. The navy saved both of our lives more than once, and in more ways than one.
If you are interested in joining the navy, we encourage you to visit navy.com and see what your options are. The navy isn't for everyone, but for both of us, it was the right thing, at the right time, and we think its always worth exploring.
If you want more (non-recruiting) information on the navy, visit the official site of the US Navy at navy.mil
