A lot of people around here talk big, but I don't see them going out and trying to actually take it to the enemy.

I read about a woman in Arizona, 41 years old, just enlisted.
When it became clear to me that I was not going to go farther in baseball than college, I seriously considered enlisting; however, I was rejected for a heart trouble - mitral regurgitation - which I've had pretty much all my life.

I've wondered why if it didn't prevent me from playing ball, why would it prevent me from military duty?
