It seems to me that almost every day now I'm learning a member is or was in the military. So, I figured I would start a thread for current or former military to go ahead and put themselves out there. The overall support for the military on this forum is oustanding, but that's not the purpose of the thread. I'm just wondering who's out there. I'll start...

Branch: Army
Served: FEB 2000- Present
Duty Stations:
Korea 2000-2001

Ft. Riley, KS 03-05, 09-present
Ft. Drum, NY 05-09

Deployed- Iraq 03-04, 05-06, 07-08, 09-present

Again, I'm not looking for any praise or recognition (you guys have been more than obliging in other threads with that), I'm just curious how many military brothers (and sisters) I have out there in AudiForums land...

“American parachutists -- devils in baggy pants -- are less than 100 meters from my outpost line. I can't sleep at night; they pop up from nowhere and we never know when or how they will strike next. Seems like the black-hearted devils are everywhere.” ~ German Officer’s diary, Jan, 1944

rank: spc

so many good memories during deployment and not deployed. did a **** load of crazy recoverys when i was in iraq. a noteable one was when a stryker hit an ied on a bridge the driver blacked out and fliped the stryker over the bridge, landed upside down. everyone made it out with only a few bumps and bruises. scariest time was when i was in the motopool on my 21st bday and our shop took 10 or more incoming rounds

 

jjcrt2- where in Iraq were you from 07-08? I caught that BS 15 month **** in Kirkuk.
