I've been registered for a few months now & reported in once before but according to the CO I've gotta do it again.
I'm retired Army after having served in Navy SpecOps for 6 years & the Army for 21 & came out as a 1SG.
My son is presently in 3-75 Rangers after passing through Infantry OSUT, Airborne school & RIP. I took my Aiborne training while in the Navy & am pretty sure I slept in the same barracks my son was in.
I was able to turn him blue & see him graduate in the middle of May. Nice trip down to Benning.
I live in Milwaukee & work as a Security Officer (armed) a few days a week & am enjoying the crap out of retirement. I'm so deep into it that I think the Tangos would have to be in South Milwaukee before I'm called up again!
I held Infantry, Commo & Public Affairs MOS's( I hold a degree in photography & upon entry into the Army that's a real good way to see what it's all about). When I retired I was a 1SG of a Commo Instructor Company. We did a lot of TDY teaching things like CEOI, ComSec, & lots of field expedient commo techniques to snake eaters.
Top out.
Reporting for duty (again)

Other people were fine and you liked them and were good friends; but you only felt true tenderness and love for those who had been there and had received the castigation that everyone receives who goes there long enough."
