This was likely in the late fall of 1977, four years after I graduated from Air Force OTS. Not only did I make captain, but I also earned a regular commission, rather like tenure. All of the hard work and study and seven HQ ratings as a missile combat crew commander paid off.
What I did not realize at this happy moment when Lt. Col. Glazer had us recite the oath of office was that this ceremony would at least entitle me, almost two years later, to almost $10,000.00 severance pay when I forced to resign.
