    Default Big birthday today...

    For many of you, today is known as "Flag Day," but for many of us (I'll go ahead and call out the "Ranger twins" although they aren't twins: Ranger and AirborneRanger) it is also a special birthday...
    Today is the 237th birthday for the United States Army!



    So now I ask, who here has served/is serving in the Army?
    For those that don't know I served from 09/06-10/10 with one 12-month tour in Afghanistan (RC East)- I was with 3IBCT 10th MTN DIV (LI). Technically I'm on IRR status but due to injury I'm getting a medical discharge soon.

    Oh and thought I'd share- Here is a pic of me from Afghanistan when I was working with the Base Defense Operations Cell (BDOC).

    Happy birthday, Army!

    For being so old I would think you guys would be smarter...

    Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.
