Ah, the three sweetest words to the gun line:

"EXPEND ALL AMMO!"

Me in a nut shell.

Hey! Its Me.

This is what your tax dollars did for me!
This kind of fun can never be had as a civilian.

The first 4 years of my military career was spent firmly encased in Heavy Armor!.

1/11th Armored Cavalry Regiment, Delta Company, Second Platoon.

Call sign - Delta 21

The next 18 1\2 years were spent saving lives and property, and guarding the Frontiers of Freedom in the U.S. Coast Guard.
A couple of tours on really old ships,
a LORAN Station,
Surf Rescue boats on the Oregon coast,
and even a plain clothes tour with the DOJ.
(...can neither confirm, nor deny...)

...And I dont ever want to hear any "Shallow Water Navy" Jokes! The last swim call I took was in over 22,500 feet of water.

Now Im a civilian and live vicariously through Freerepublic.com.

Great thread, Sarge. I'm enjoying reading everybody's stories.

I never served myself but I am the daughter, daughter-in-law, niece, aunt, sister-in-law, cousin, and mom of men who have served in the Air Force, Army, Navy, and National Guard, fighting for America's freedom in WWII, the Korean Conflict, Viet Nam, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. I am proud of each & every one of them.
