As for me, I'm a Sgt of Marines stationed at MCAS Cherry Point. More deployed time than I'd like to remember, but this is my home for now. Meeting with the career jammer next week. Hopefully everything goes well. I want to deploy again, but they keep telling me no.

I've been in the Navy roughly 2 years, I'm an Aviation Electrician (Avionics). I'm currently on shore duty in Norfolk VA working at AIMD. I leave in October for A school again, I'm changing my job to Air Traffic Controller, gonna extend a few more years, get out, and hopefully work for the FAA.

For all of the Marines out there, MSG duty absolutely ******* rocks, it is worth another four years.

2004 Cummins with a few mods
1965 Cutlass convert 406 SBC and Doug Nash 5sp ready to install and many other mods with more on the way

It's not that bad. Manhattan is a decent small city and it's all what you make of it. Definitely check out Harry's Restaurant in Manhattan and get the Filet Mignon Royale. 22 of the best dollars you'll ever spend.
If you want to enjoy your experience at Ft Riley, forget that Junction City exists and conduct all your business in Manhattan.
Shoot me a PM if you have any Q's.

Hey guys just checking in here. Im an Aviation Electricians Mate in the navy stationed down here in Jacksonville, FL for now. I have a '78 Firebird with a SBC 332 back home that dynoed 417/377 and I am currently looking for a formula down here. I am an e-2 just about to get e-3 and just wondering if there are any other navy guys on here.

Been in the Army for 9 months as a 13F, a Forward Observer, so to break it down into Marine's terms (sorry, oh wait... no not really) I call for fire and tell the 155mm and 105mm Howitzers where to shoot, the most deadly force upon the battle-field, which doesn't count for **** in Iraq where I will be manning a M240B on a gun truck (wtf?). Supposidly going in October, but then again according to the original plan we should have been coming back in December from a 1 year tour. Anyway, all joking aside if you are in any branch of the military more power to you, even if you are a jarhead (heh heh heh). Went from E1 to E3 in 9 months, not bad eh?
