Hello, you may have seen me around with my military articles. Anyway, My article is also in the process of getting picked up by Real Clear Defense but the editor, David Craig, says I need more research and I was wondering if I could get the stories and experiences of some aspie veterans.

Unfortunately I'm short on money, but if your talking about the paper I'm not sure

What kinds of experiences are you specifically looking to know about? I have a number that I can share if you're interested. Ask and you shall receive. :)

Just a general experience of being autistic in the military and how it could be an advantage. If you could PM or send me an email of your experiences that would be great. Also if you are still serving, I promise to keep you anonymous.
