Veteran here. While away at war, servicemembers generally have difficulty procreating, although I knew several female Soldiers that got pregnant right before deployment, and several more that got impregnated while we were in Afghanistan.

I am confident that many Soldiers that deployed with me got pregnant or got someone pregnant when they came home.

Of course, personnel in World War II, Korea, and maybe Vietnam hooked up with local nationals. It very well may have happened in Afghanistan, but I did not know of anyone walking out the gate for any reason, including seemingly shapely women.

I once shared a source that showed that worldwide, there was a strong correlation between women not finishing high school and having kids early and often.

I am sure that I have made plenty of decisions that caused me financial troubles, but I came into money last year, and paid down my student loans.

I hope to pay them off this year. Then I am neutralizing my credit cards.

Anyway, I need to read seven chapters in the next twenty-two hours, watch hours of lectures, take a quiz undoubtedly designed with a different textbook than we were assigned, do it all over again tomorrow, and then take a test on Sunday.

Please have a good day.
