Be careful when you ask this question. I had the bad luck of being in a squad once with a guy who claimed to be a 91 year old hellcat pilot with 14 jap kills under his belt. And the CO actually believed him.

I'm an Infantryman in the US Army.
First duty station was Korea where I served as a Guard Sentry for the United Nations Honor Guard Company.
PCSed to FT Drum where I served in Apache Company 2-87 IN RGT. I served a 12 month tour in Kandahar Afghanistan with them.
Currently serve as in B Co 2-27 IN The Wolfhounds on Schofield Barracks Hawaii. I was in the process of getting a warrant officer packet complete(flight warrant) but I dislocated and fractured my patella last week and I can't pass a flight physical.
Funny story, the only person I've met from this community in person was Selino30 (also an infantryman) while in Afghanistan, we were both at the same FOB for refit(think he was there for puma training) we were both on Facebook and I mentioned arty being shot from the base...he said they were shooting at his too...I asked him what base he was out and boom...we are a few tents from each other. We linked up did some smoking and joking, well I was smoking. Would have been better to have some beers!!

I spent a lot of time TDY, luckily, in the era we were swapping older weapons for the GLCMs and Pershings in Europe so we were doing a lot of convoying to dissasembly and storage. To this day I dont talk in detail about it or say locations. "Secret" is "secret".
Now my son is doing the exact same job. Funny how that works. I was down at Lackland last spring to watch him graduate from BT. It was no nice being around those excellent young people and hearing "sir" and "m'am" being spoken and not having to hear 18yo's calling you "dude" or "guy" or "chief" like little dooshes.
I notice that with the young ones coming on my job out of the military. They are much more respectful towards the citizens then the other recruits. And professional.

USAF 1988-2011.

While an Ammo troop, I was at Homestead AFB providing A2A and A2G munitions for F-4 and then F-16s. Wen't on the Osan AB, then to Carswell AFB in Ft Worth, then to Seymour Johnson AFB.
