I'm not a vet. I was just a lowly deputy sheriff, but my son is active now. 10th Mountain Div, 3rd AU at the moment (just got there) and I'm damned proud of him.

I was an RO and was starting to cross train into WD when I got out. WD was the shiznet.

Cripes, transference much? Hint, you know you can't possibly be a vet if you were never even in the ****ing military.

Quit using big words with them. Leave it at coward they can understand that one.

7 years in Princess Patricias Canadian Light Infantry 3rd Battalion. With attachments to the 82nd airborne division and the 5/7th dragoon Guards. Most of my career was in the Recce platoon as a driver, det 2ic, Sniper spotter and Det comander. Also did a little time in the combat intelligence section and the TOW missle platoon.

One month after I got out Sadam invaded Iraq. Missed alot of interesting stuff by missing the 90s.

no sheet. i worked with you guys a couple of times the last time being afghanistan. damn shame about your boys in that blue on blue incident as well. there were a bunch of long faces in every compound after that went down your guys were highly regarded by everybody they worked with. i edited out the name request becuase i just noticed you were out in 1990. first time i worked with your unit was a little bit later than that.
