I owe my life to the USAF doctors who saved my life in April,1973. They were at R.A.F. Upper Heyford, England. I was sick with a very high fever, they made good decisions. I had last rites I was so sick. My fever dropped and returned to normal.

Hi guys. I'm an Army vet here and just stumbled onto this thread, literally. I'd love the Army vet icon. I'm the son and grandson of Army vets. I was a Captain, U.S. Army JAG Corps and I'm the father of a U.S. Army Major, who is MI. Thanks.

Interesting (possibly to some) story. US Army basic training August’79, Fort Dix N.J. Years later, I was assigned to Flight Deck officer school in Lakehurst NJ, and while there, was able to revisit my basic training post. It was all but shut down, just as my military career was winding down.
Basic Fort Dix NJ
AIT Fort Eustis Va 67Y
Fort Bragg NC HHC 35th Signal Brigade
Fort Rucker Ala WORWAC
Fort Ord Ca C Co 7th CAB “Planet Ord”
NAS Pensacola AOCS “Class 31-85, marching into chow!”
NAS Whiting VT-6
NAS Meridian VT7 “Attritian”
NAS Oceana VA 42/VA-34 “Blue Blasters”
CVN 71 TR “Big Stick”

2 service guy. Couldn’t get enough abuse.
Army AND Navy stickers please.

Go Army, Beat Navy! Or is it the other way around?

Nope. You were right the first time.

Kinda breaks your heart to see some of the old posts shut down.
