UPDATED- How many active duty military trad bowhunters are on TG? A hunt awaits...

[Bud B.]

Thank you Recurve Addict!

I was USAF back in the mid 80s. Got out as an E5. I miss it at times.

81150

[Mark Colangelo]

Thanks for your service! I was selected for promotion to E-6 last week actually. I can't imagine doing anything else.

[Bud B.]

Congrats! E6 was called Technical Sergeant back in the day, but the rank structure has changed since then. The chevrons are different now. I was part of the Senior Airman time period. I think that is now gone. Maybe?

[Mark Colangelo]

No sir, Tech Sergeant is still my next rank. AB, A1C, Sra, SSgt, TSgt, MSgt, SMSgt, CMSgt. Buck Sergeant is the only change I believe from the rank structure for quite some time.

[Bud B.]

AB, Airman, A1C, SrA, Sgt, SSgt, TSgt, MSgt, SMSgt, CMSgt, CMSgt of AF.

So Buck Sgt is gone. We had some E4BS that never could get past the test.

My E1 pay was $573 a month. That was tough!

Stay safe Mark!

[Mark Colangelo]

oh i just realized I left out Amn (one chevron)...rarely see those anymore

No longer active but I'm still in the Reserves. 21 years and counting. Great thing you're doing!
