Now days, you request your MOS during Selection. After Selection, they tell you what MOS you got picked up for. I originally got picked up for 18B, but went to changed it 18C. All I had to do was see the student assignments counselor and ask for it to be changed. If you're in the 18D course and that...

One -Eye, I was on that deployment to Germany and while I can't remeber you're name, I remeber on the flight back in the 747, you were sprawled out in one row with what looked like your whole head wrapped in gauze. I was feeling pretty bad for myself after I dislocated my shoulder kowala-fying on a ...

I remember in my RIP class, there was another guy with my same last name. It's not a very common name by any means and having to PV2's, in the same class, really got the funny bone of all the cadre. I mean, this guy and I even looked alike. Turns out we were related, but that's another story. Can't ...

R.A.C.K.
The first RACKs were not called RACKs at all. RgrPantel might remember in early '98 seeing a few guys from Aco 2/75 wearing chest harness' that looked kind of like RACKs. These first ones were designed by the Aco 3rd Plt (Earthpigs) PLT SGT. He designed them, with the help of some of his squad leade...

Combat Jumps after 9/11
The only other combat jumps in Afghanistan that I know of is USAF CCT/PJ (STS). Two PJ's did a HALO jump to help out a critically injured Australian SASR trooper who needed to be stabilized before he could be moved to a lower altitude before any rotary wing acft could evacuate him. Also, there are r...
