    15T (Blackhawk mechanic, Crew Chief) with the AKARNG currently deployed to Kosovo. That puts me about 5300 miles from home, and my trikes.

    Crewing Blackhawks is kinda cool too, I guess...

    I did 6 years and got out in 1986! LOL I"m Old! I went to Beirut in 82-83 as part of the multinational peacekeeping forces. Sadly I had to carry caskets twice, First when they blew up the American Embassy and Second when terrorits blew up the Marine Barracks with a truck bomb. I also got to see a Battleship fire the first Broadside "In Anger" since the Vietnam war. My ship was also the "First Ship of the Line" to carry a Coast Guard Flag while we were busting boats for drugs down around Cuba. A few interesting stories connected with that too. My hats' off to anyone in the Military past or present. Thanks for doing all that you have done and keep up the great work!!!

    I'm going on 8 years in the navy and finishing up my last deployment right now before I roll to shore duty. I work on the structural and hydraulic systems on the MH-60S (navy version of the army blackhawk helicopter).

    Six years and counting active-duty in the Army (15D20 Powertrain Mechanic). I got back from "The Surge" last August, and it looks like I'll be part of the next surge into Afghanistan. At least it will be a change of scenery.

    BTW, I miss all of my toys since they're halfway across the country from me.
