US Army 78-80, 1st MP Co, 716th MP Bn, 1st Infantry Division.

We got recalled as we were boarding Starlifters in 79',deploying in prep to square away Iran.  I often wonder how different the world would be today had we gone in back then...

My son (The Primate) is career Army, currently stationed at Ft Knox, with two tours in Dirka-Dirkastan under his belt...

Active Army from 97 to 02.  Most time was spent in aviation, Apache's, as a fueler... driving 2500 gallon fuel tankers around. Spent most my time in TX, some in KY and a short stint in Bosnia.  Never played in the sand box, which was bittersweet (didn't really want to go but didn't want my buddies to be there w/out me.)  My wife also served 4 years, same time frame as a truck driver (moving tanks mostly) TX and KY also.

Picture from the dedication of the Veterans Memorial in my hometown on Veterans Day 2009.

 

God bless those who defend us, in the past and in present... allowing us to live our lives in the glory of Freedom.
