After retiring with 23 years and several deployments, I never received a retirement award. Not that I can even get a cup of coffee with one-but what mindset allows this?

Military courtesy is taught throughout a soldier's career, it's a shame that it's forgotten at the end of his career.

Tim: Once a month I look at my bank account and see my retirement award! I did not get one either, and at the end of the day, when I drove out the gate I swore to myself I'd never go back. 11 years Later, I haven't. I miss the kids, the good NCO's and I try to stay in contact with a few select individuals. Other than that, I am a civilian through and through.
