active and former military

[deepfry]

After looking through alot of posts it seems like a fairly high percentage of members here are or have been in the military, myself included. I thought it might be interesting to see just how many there actually are. So, if you are active, former, retired, guard or reserve please post


If you want, tell us what you do/did, units you were in, whatever. You might even find out someone else here was in your same unit. I'll start

Former - I just ETS'd (actually still on terminal leave) from the Army. I was a cook in the 25th ID, Schofield Barracks.
5 years active duty, two deployemts.

deepfry= Army cook


As for myself as name implies am in the Guard , Army version and serving the state of New York currently. Mos's held are 13B, 15T, and 15U. Coming up on re-enlistment in February and would like to make a switch to a 68W slot and get that MOS. Though Aviation is rather nice MOS to be in when your on deployment.

BTW: If you don't mind I'd like the recipe for fried cabbage, actually miss the stuff and was discussing it last night.
