ARVN Ranger
Greetings. I enlisted in '64. Spent a year as an advisor to an ARVN Ranger Bn. Second tour was as senior advisor with ARVN Division Recon Company. Due to a brief, but very unpleasant, encounter with a landmine, the Army decided I would make a pretty good clerk. I decided I would make a pretty good civilian. Took a year of hard work, but I recovered enough to spend over 30 years as a state trooper. Fifteen years after I left AD, I felt the Army deserved a second chance, so I joined the reserve, and retired as a First Sergeant with a total of 20 years service. Spent an additional 5 years overseas as a civilian employee of my Uncle, training coppers for various third-world shitholes. Best job I ever had.
Hope this is enough to avoid any nasty "introduce yourself" messages.
