In June I will have 23 years combined active and reserve time. Army Medical Department. Lab Officer on active duty. In the reserve I have had to go for any job I can find. I plan on retiring in 2019. It has been fun. I have been to some cool places.
Thank you all, and thanks to and for all those mentioned.

I remember when desert storm started as my franchise consultant got deployed as he was Marine reserve and he was leader of a howitzer crew. His battery hammered Falushia. So my friends and I decided to send a care package which in the end was about 20 packages full of treats. Got a list of things that they wanted from a wife. They were so grateful.never forget that.
