I’m an Army Brat, born at Fort Knox, Dad was a lifer! By the time he retired, after 22 years, I had lived in 7 different locations in my first 7 years of life. Nike Life was so much fun! 18 years after retiring Dad’s last assignment was Arlington. Veteran of WW2, Korea and Vietnam. Thank You all for your service.

Very appropriate as we observe our fallen brothers and sisters on Saturday.   U.S. Army, 12 Bravo, 1969-1971.  Volunteer at the National World War I Museum and Monument.  Consider it a high honor to serve there, and show that history to all  who visit.  To all my veteran sisters, thank you so much.    👏👏👏

I did not serve due to being 1Y and ultimately 4F during the Viet Nam era. However, whenever I see messages life this, it reminds me that we have been just about everywhere and done just about everything. That is a very powerful message.

USN 1966-70. Pacific Fleet destroyers. That is where my modesty gene shriveled and died, and my first experience wearing baggy boxers.

I wonder who got the kick back for selling those awful things (boxers) to the Navy?  I trashed every single pair, while on boot camp leave, replaced with jockey shorts, as did every shipmate I knew.  Wonder what women were forced to wear, but then again, in 1966, I very rarely saw a female in the military.
