I had several officers pushing me to go (including BG Granrud, later LTG Granrud, who was the ADC-M for 2ID at the time), but after I enlisted, I quickly learned by observation that I would not have been happy as an officer. They really do have to put up with and participate in a lot of politics. The careers of those officers who don't participate are usually short and miserable -- which really sucks, because they are generally the best officers.
