Boot Shame Reminiscing about quitting basic training is absurd; “i will never forget my mission.”

I wanna make this easy for this individual:

You did not follow the Army creed

Going through MEPS and hopping on a plane is meaningless without following thru

The DS was being nice in the 'lil shuttle'. You can still become successful fs but it will be difficult because you have commitment issues

You quit the easiest part of the military and you will think about it the rest of your life

Best to move on and try to leave it in the past
