I voted "other" 'cause from '65-'69, I was a Seabee; all ex-Seabees know that the United States Navy is a branch of the Seabees (and the Marines are just everybodys bellhops).

U.S.A.F! 1985-? Im still going on. Getting close to my 20 but I can stay for 26 if I want to???? I will have to see what kind of job is available around the 20yr mark.
My favorite assignment to date has to be Elmendorf AFB, Alaska. Oh what a beautiful place....I will be going back soon to retire there for a while..I think everyone should at least take a vacation up there at some point in there life! |

 I'm getting more and more Canadian by the day... My Grandpa was in the Navy as a Signalman 1942-1944, on a ship in Europe and Africa. He wore his dress whites when he married, I don't think you'll find a better looking picture than him and my Grandma just then. I have his dress blues and his dog tags. He passed away a few weeks ago, and we'll have his flag soon.
