You were AF right? Happy Veterans day tomorrow!Lots of free meals for Vets tomorrow if you can take advantage of it. I'll be at Applebee's for my free steak for lunch. Thanks to everyone for their service no matter how long or short it was and to those still serving.
Yep! - 28 years, 9.5 enlisted, the remainder to 28 years retired as a LT Col. Great times, great memories and got to see most of the world, particularly the Far East, Europe and Middle East. If you are an employer - hire vets, they are the best.You were AF right? Happy Veterans day tomorrow!
Thank you @Mike Cline . Happy Veterans Day to you and to all vets! My dad is retired Air Force. He is 88 now. One of the best things i learned from him (but not the only thing) was having a good work ethic.Yep! - 28 years, 9.5 enlisted, the remainder to 28 years retired as a LT Col.

Jim - I too avoided bullets flying. I enlisted in the Navy in 1968. 51 years ago this month I made my first of three cruises to Vietnam and thankful to be on a support vessel(s) (USS Ajax, AR6 and USS Hector, AR7) and not on the USS Higbee, DD806.Some times I feel funny saying thank you to a post like this. 3 years Army. 1953 to 1956. I somehow never made it to where bullets were flying around. I must of been born under a lucky star. But thank you all for a post like this one.
