UConn provided a foundation but the real world experienced and lessons learned in those four years built upon it for even greater success in life. Almost every veteran I know feels they gained more then they gave. Lots of unfocused young people could materially benefit from four years in uniform. One of my nephews was failing at everything in HS and joined the Navy. The discipline he faced in training turned him around and the career field he was placed in after testing allowed him to grow and achieve things he'd never considered. After four years he went to DePaul, graduated with honors, and has had a very successful management career in the electronics industry. [/QUOTE]
