Mayberry 0 #1 November 11, 2004 Today being Veterans Day I just wanted to say thanks for a great job!! I know there are a lot of you DZ.commers who are vets or are in the service now. So--SOUND OFF!! Who are you, when did you serve, what did you do while you were in the military? Same for you guys & gals who are currently in the military. Me, I was in the Army from 84-87 as a 63B (light wheeled vehicle mechanic). I'm trying to keep it simple so this doesn't wind up in Speaker's Corner. Anyways, just wanted to say thanks guys!! We appreciate it!!! DonDon Here's to friends! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KawiZX900 0 #20 November 12, 2004 QM2(SW) USS CURTIS WILBUR 7th FLEET . 98-2004 turned down officers school to be a broke ass civilian film maker after downsizing from a Arleigh Burke class Destroyer and a stint friggin on a figate. Never sail a Frigate, hardly even a boat. Hello to anybody on the shitty kitty. "Haze grey and underway, got drunk and they docked my pay." Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds.
