My 22 year old is out of Ft. Riley, KS, in Iraq currently. What's your daughter's MOS? Medical?

Yes she is medical, makes glasses for folks but is looking into Phy Assist. She kind of joined late, her husband was infantry and got out and she joined it. She was first in her company on the rifle range in basic and missed one point of winning the batallion. She claims she is going to stay in for a career. She goes to NCO acadamy in January.

I spent 11 years on active duty but got RIF'ed after Vietnam. I stayed in the USAR and was able to retire from that plus the VA rated me at 100% disability for PTSD problems. I spent most of my active duty in EOD (Bomb Disposal) with tours in Korea and Vietnam. If I had the second chance I would do it all over again. I am still proud of what we tried to do in Vietnam.
