I am humbled, but proud, to be among the number of veterans here on the board and in the US. Served 88-06 in Army Aviation Maintenance. Medically retired after my second tour in Iraq. Spent most of that time in the Cavalry. Now have 2 sons in the USAF (one of them in Iraq for the second time now), and one joining the Army very soon.
My son is also in Iraq - 2nd tour. Chris is stationed in Balad. Yours?
Thank you for your service. It sounds like you gave more than most, but like some of us, my 20 years in the AF seems so safe compared to many.
C-141 Flight Engineer. Loved it and I do miss it.
