USN 63-70. Basic at GLAKES, MM School at GLAKES, NAVNUCPWR at Bainbridge, prototype at Windsor retained for staff, SubSchool at NLON, to USS Gato (SSN615) 3355/3356 and out. MM1(SS) (PNA for E-7, not enough time in) when I left for college. Saw a lot of green and cold thru the periscope, and a few "ports of call." Some was fun, some not, but still happy that I did a bit.

USMC 81-85 Hollywood Marine
stationed at CamPen did 2 floats
places I went in USMC
Okinawa (who didnt )Koriea,Philipienes, Japan,Panima,Diego Garcia,
after being on liberty for 20 years,and I kept hearing about guys from my old unit 3/5 getting KIA,I joined a guard unit that was ramping up for Iraq SEMPER FI !!!
I may wear the Army uniform but my heart and soul will always be MARINE!!!!! even after almost 25 years when I wright my MOS I still put 0311 unstead of 11B LOL
Things sure have changed in 20 years,not all for the better either in my opinion,or maybe its just the differance between active duty and National Guard most likely a little of both
The tools of the trade have changed also,when I got out in 85 I either carried a 1911 or a M16A1,I wore a steel pot,a PRK 77 didnt take a colladge degree to operate,the utility vehicle was a jeep,GPS was a map and compass,ect,ect
ARNG 2005- not sure

WOW I need to update mine. I went back in (the Oregon Air National Guard, this time) in June of 2007 I just could not hack being a civilian. I'm due to sew on SSGT in June, I found out late after I did all my promotion stuff (paper work got sent up the street to MPF, got new uniforms, as directed we found out) that My time in grade got started over due to my break in service, so in june when I get my 2year time in grade I'll finally get SSGT sewn on.
I'm now a f-15 Crew Cheif at the 142fighter wing in Portland Oregon. http://www.142fw.ang.af.mil/
