When I enlisted, the guy filling out the form put "NMI" in the form, and
from then on all my official documents including my discharge notice say
"Paul NMI Tomblin". Stupid, stupid, stupid. Now that I'm older and more
cynical I think I should have made up middle names like "Norman Mailer
Issiah" to match the fake initials.

A friend of mine always put R in. Asked why, he said "R" as in "required".
