I could never do your job as good as you. I cannot give unbiased opinions or good advice. Its just not in me. You know theres no love like tough love. I was trying to get you ready for boot camp (oh wait, you are the one that is supposed to say stuff like that) 
I guess this is just one more thing you can add to the list of "Madhats kick butt life" list. You are living the life, I am happy for you.
I look forward to hearing some stories.
Honestly, what else could you ask for? A 12sec. Dodge, beautiful, healthy family, and you get to go yell at people and blow stuff up all day.

It is.
Guess that will give me time to save up for a lmills truck...

I want to go to the sand! I didn't join the Corps to sit behind a desk...

If it truly makes you happy, go for it. the wife will understand. It's in your blood.
You sound excited about this "offer", and this is what the military needs, not a bunch of whining " I only joined for my GI bill" people.
It takes a courageous person to join (let alone to re-in-list).
What ever you decide, I wish you the best of luck in your decision, and thank you for your service to our country

Yeah, but I'll be a course challenger, and not be at school that much. But, we go to work after a few weeks of DI school...

How does that work for you? Do you train in a specialized field, like shooting or hand to hand or do you do it all?
Do you stay with the same bunch of guys from their first day until they leave?
Last question, do you stay with them in the barracks a lot or do you go home every night?
Sorry if they seem like stupid questions, I a just curious....like George.

Well I can say that I got out of the service once and then the family thing started setting in when I met my wife.Well when I got out I didnt like it.I felt like I was lost and didnt know where to go,something was missing.So i told my wife I am going back in because I liked the structure and the service helps people when they need it.There are those few that dont like the service but I still respect those that do come in and do their time.I know I have a guaranteed job in the service as well and dont have to worry about my wife and 3 kids.They are doing well and I dont have to pay all those medical bills for having kids and the boo boos they get.As far as wife and husband go the service will test the love and let ya know who isnt strong enough.Been in 11 years and love every minute of it.If the service calls you back in then that should tell you were dang good at what you did not the fact the must be desperate they need good leaders to keep people alive.
