Real Military "Vets" post
 

Since there are a few threads for "Forum Vets" I thought I would start one for real veterans from any country's service. I'm a veteran US Air Force NCO. I was assigned to duty stations in three different countries.

This is also in honor of "Veterans Day" or "Remembrance Day" or whatever it's called in your country. Cheers to the Veterans!!

I will be in a couple months, well in the army at least. Probably wouldn't call myself a vet, more like a new recruit. biggrin:

Good luck ninty9 and always try to do your best! biggrin:

Thanks a lot. biggrin: I will, I hope. evil:

im a navy vet, spent 10 yrs in teh Navy, been in desert storm, desert shield, gulf war, etc. I was an aviation mechanic. Was a PO2 when i got out, was on my way up to PO1

And remember, point the barrel away from your face. happy:

Really?

Didn't know that. Thanks for the tip.

Ninty, is their a specific Divison you want to join?

I will be joining the Calgary Highlanders Regiment because it is the only one in the City. I'm going into reserve so hey will keep me in my home city. Then in a few years I might beable to do a tour. They split the thing up into two infantry regiments this year cause a whole bunch of them went to Bosnia about a month ago for 6 months.

So i'm pretty sure i'll be with the Highlanders as an infanteer, and from what i've heard, i'll be in B company because thats where the new recruits go.

I ship out December 30th to Lackland AFB. My dad was in for 22 years. Brothers an O3, other brother did his 4 years. My turns a commin.

Good Luck Alias. Remember your reporting statement "Sir Airman Alias reports as ordered." And you will be fine.

Good Luck Alias! You'll probably hear this alot: Airman, give me a 341! HMMMM I don't even know if they still use 341's! oOo:

I'm enlisting next October in DEP as a Combat Controller.

What are you going in as?

lol thanks Sindonesia. We have meetings once a month while in DEP and I kept screwing it up. Im actually going to have to say "Sir, Trainee Mckiernan Reports as Ordered ". I kept saying "Sir, Trainee Mckiernan reporting as ordered"

Bleed, my brother got a couple 341's written up. Dont they write them out for both good and bad behavior? I think he was 1/1 on that. Only reason I know what they are. I hope I get 50 or somethin biggrin:

Zapotoski, im going in as a Communications/Computer Systems Operations Apprentice. The job really sounded interesting and its in the feild that I wanted. I also didnt want to wait next year cool:
