I once stayed overnight at a Coast Guard station on Lake Tahoe when snow and mechanical issues prevented me from getting back to DLI from my ski trip. It was the first time I wondered if I’d made a mistake with the whole Army thing. They had Silicon Valley level amenities and a job that amounted to boating, ATVs, and snowmobiles…

Happy birthday!
