Wow, you are doing a terrific thing! I have always wondered what would have happened if I had done that. I'm at the other end of life and making the best of that. You know what I thought might be good about the Armed Forces? Rules. At first that might not sound good, but for Asperger's - that our problem, isn't it? We don't know what to do, what to say. And the Armed Forces *defines* all that! I really hope you keep in touch and let us know how you go. Best of luck!
