Yeah, i'm having a pity party, so what? Once, i would love for something good to come our way. Just once! Jackson's been studying for the board for at least 4 months now. He's been screwed over a few times due to someones mistake on paperwork and what not. He flew to Salerno last week (finally) to go in front of the promotion board. The day comes that he is supposed to go, and he doesn't even get to go! This time it's because some scores on his form weren't good until the day of the interview. Of course, even though noone told him the whole freaking week he was there, it's his fault. In the 5 years we've been married, he's been jerked around in one way or another by the army. He is a hell of a soldier. His sgt's have told him this many times. He goes above and beyond all the time with no backtalk or other disrespect to his nco's. they call on him to do "extra" work because it looks good on him to do it, but where the hell has it gotten him? Extra work and no recognition for it. I'm so tired of this being in his grasp for something stupid to come and fuck it up. when will he get a break? All these other guys can get promoted like it's nothing, but he works his ass off and gets screwed every single time!
I'm proud of the soldier he is and the work he does, and he more than deserves this. So, when is it his turn?
I love you Jackson. <3
