presented the 18year-old soldier the battalion commander’s coin

Heh.
Kid gets a challenge coin but is too young to go drink in a bar to use it...
Or do they still serve "underage" military in the E clubs?

Do they even still have E clubs?

When I was stationed at Fort Riley (yuck) I would collect bicycles from the curb when people would put them out as trash. I’d then piece together working bicycles and have my kids test ride them. Once they were working I would give them away to a local charity that would pass them along to kids without bikes. In the five years there I put together a lot of bikes. Only thing I was out was my time and a little money for parts.
