Are you thinking about enlisting

in-in-in the military?

It's something I'm considering.

Well, I-I was, um, on an ROTC scholarship

in college, which requires

four years of service after graduation.

I served in the intelligence branch.

And, uh, you know, for-for me, the service, um, helped.

It taught me discipline, commitment,

um, might have given me some direction that I lacked.

It's a very conservative institution,

uh, especially...

when it--when it comes to c-certain, um,
