Drinking? You act like all the young service people arn't out partying? In my college years that's all the parties I went to was a few of my enlisted friends house parties. Sure they wern't into pot, but there sure are those that do risk getting caught.
What's wrong with a thursday?
The single biggest thing you have going is the tatoo. Other than that, need to wise up that a bunch of these 18-23 year olds, while they get respect for serving, and some are straight laced. A fair bunch are also the ones who really had no other future/good options or otherwise do the same things college kids are doing. Especially how a few years ago entrance req's was a bit more relaxed.
