I was a seal- on a secret team, a sniper- in a unit that doesn't exist, and a ranger. I was in for several years and went several places. I can't tell you anymore. It's all classified.
No. Seriously folks, I'm here all week- try the veal
I was in '88-'94 Navy San Diego for 2.5 years of training, FFG-58 for the rest.
Took a sailing tour of the Persian gulf in '91. E-4 Honorable discharge |

Question for you military people......
We were discussing the issue of military people being thanked for their service on another forum. One of the guys said that his nephew hated it when people thanked him for his service. His words were: "I hate that crap!"
How do you feel about it, and what would you say is the best way that someone can show their gratitude for the sacrifice that you're making? __________________ Well behaved women rarely make history!
