US Army, Retired, 21 years 1974-1995. It has been strange living in the same house, same town and same job for the past 18 years.

Retired Air Force 20 years and almost 20 years out. Have to admit we miss the life. DW was Air Force Reserve in our early years. Actually met her in the recruiters office. Wanted me to keep an eye on her for the MEPS Station was in another town.. Being a young and dumb recruit I strictly obeyed (gladly) for more than 39 years. Thanks to all who serve and the family members.
