Andy, were you active during any of the wars? I was in afgan but luckily got out before Iraq started, though I kind of wished I would have stayed, I lost a lot of good friends over there, sort of keep thinking I could have helped in some way...

I'm active Army with 18yrs TIS. I'm currently a SFC (E-7) but will be a 1LT in about 2 years and a CPT 16 months later, so I think that means that I outrank the Jarheads even if they do outnumber us Phoebs. LOL

one jarhead out numbers and out ranks about 10 soldiers...lol
I wasn't in during any wars...Somalia was ending and Bosnia was a NATO deal. I wouldn't worry about the past, you never know what you could have done to help...you might have been there with them and not made it back either. I feel you on the comraderie though...I miss a few of my friends from when I was in. There is nothing like partying with fellow jarheads.

Very true Andy. I have a few Navy and Marine friends (about the same actually.. lol) and getting drunk with them is a little too much fun.. I usually feel outnumbered as most of my military friends anymore are navy, airforce, and marines.

Was an E-4 in the Army. I was planning on staying in. I was going to the board in Iraq, but I had a little breakdown and my first sergeant changed his mind. I got out when we got back and I think I've been better off since. I don't think any American should be asked to fight a war when it doesn't mean protecting american lives.
