Work the Program The ship was pretty tough on me being in recovery, and I think that's something unique to the Navy. The problem was meetings were at night, after normal working hours. And on a ship as an air traffic controller, my primary working hours were at night. So that didn't work out very well. What the ship taught me was pretty simple - I had to work the program, and I couldn't just go to meetings for a solution. I had to separate the meetings and the people from the program. If I did the program (meaning the Steps) - if I prayed, if I did all the things that I'm supposed to do, I could stay sober. Day by day, my recovery program entails a spiritual program. ~Joe H., U.S. Navy, 1988–2015 Today's reading is from the book Leave No One Behind: Daily meditations for Military Service Members and Veterans in Recovery*
