    USA, Active Duty 2003-present.

    Currently overseas working as a Commo Sergeant. Combat tour #4, but hell, I got hot showers (usually) and a pretty reliable internet connection so it's NOTHING like a lot of you old-timers had. Much respect to all the old school vets who made it easier for all of us today.

    U.S Navy, 63-67, served on USS Colahan (DD-658), USS Mitchell (TAP-114, USNS Patrick (TAP-124), then First Mobile Forces Afloat, Rung Sat Special Zone, Vietnam. First ship was homeported in Long Beach, so was able to race at Lion's, second and third ship homeported at Oakland, so able to race at Half Moon Bay and Fremont (when I would afford it). Proud to have served, no regrets.

    1991 to present. Currently in the 82D Airborne. Deploying to Afghanistan soon. From what I've seen the HAMB supports it's vets 100%.

    ZMAN, thanks for all you do for our VETS. Using your place for dropping off the Care packages for deployed service men and women last year was outstanding. How did that go buy the way? I wanted to get something sent out but didn't make the deadline.

    And to everyone that reads this, You don't need to thank me for my service, I chose this profession. THANK YOU for the support.
