Wink Army, the better working folks choice......

Army MP, didn't see another female during that the whole stint. 1978-1981
active duty for army National Guard 1981-1984 buffalo, NY 206th MPs
Fort McClellan, Fort Jackson, Fort Ord, Mannheim/West German assignment, Fort bragg for an extra 50 bucks a month to jump out of perfectly good airplanes. terrified of water, had to rappell out of a UH-1 copter. one month later Army said it was too hazardous and stopped that requirement.....

very nice to learn about what you can do when you think you've reached the limits....Vietnam guys are the best! saw a female drill sergeant one day for 'the talk' about women stuff. had all male Drill sergeants for the 13 gals in our company, shared quarters when respect still was around in society.
like having 220 brothers.... ahhh the good old days

Having done so much active duty during the last 21+yrs, I am not sure I qualify as "reserve"... Have spent more time in different AOR's than a lot of active folks. Anyway, C-141 and KC-10 flying crew chief/pro super... currently 1st Sgt. My avitar is a photo on the ramp at Diego Garcia during operation Anaconda...

Was a contracted Army ROTC cadet, got hurt, had some reconstructive surgery. Hopefully by the time I finish my degree Ill be healed up enough to go the the Army reserves. Family military history(every generation) since 1862 Army Marines and Airforce.

Not to many jobs in the civilian world that being a Boom Operator will transfer into. Thats why I went cutting edge.
