I'm new to the group. I'm a bonafide us army veteran. 11b was my mos. just wanted to know how many armed forces brethren or sisters we got here.
 
Currently serving officer with the National Guard.  Will have a total of 30 years of service in July; eleven of which was active and fourteen of which was enlisted.  I have been Signal, Military Intelligence and Armor.  I would still be Armor if my state didnt give away my horse.

 
15W UAS Section SSG with almost 10 years, and going strong! This is what got me interested in this group: all of the vets here!
 
27 Years and still going. 12B, 19E, 19K, 19D, got my commission as an E7, now an Armor Captain in the Texas Army National Guard.
 
Appreciate everyones Service!!  Thank you all!! 

I enlisted my Junior Year of High School so doing Delayed Entry in '84.  I served Active from '85 to '88 with DCo 4/325 AIR 82nd ABN as an 11H, Loader, Gunner and moved up to an RTO.  I Did 1 year of Active Reserve for 95B (MP / PW) did that Training and went to PLDC.  I got into LE in '89 got to be transferred to Inactive Ready Reserve.  I have been serving in this Capacity ever since.  I am currently a Patrol Sergeant and have been serving in this capacity since '06.

Thank you again for your Service

All The Way!
 
11B here '96- 2000.  Got injured during RIP @ Benning, instead of going to 75th went to the 3rd US Infantry "the Old Guard."  Got my triple stack and left in 2000 as E-4.

Glad I did it, glad I got the hell out.  Thanks to all who have and continue to serve.

That would be a PATRIOT Fire Control Enhanced Operator/Maintainer (14E)

It does fit my job description, so I guess 14E it is.
Thanks.

CID huh? Is it anything like the TV shows?
 
Rant trigger: Every time I watched NCIS I wanted to punch the TV. Not at all what it is like, but the reality was sometimes more fun and sometimes much worse.  Doing an interrogation for 14 hours and eventually having the scum bag act out how he sexually abused two toddlers and an infant while trying not to kill him is disastrous on your soul. Actually all the child crime was heart breaking, the amount of "accidental" child deaths, child molestation and CP that come from the Army was mind blowing.  The crime lab was a big one that always made me mad because I wish it was like on t.v. When we sent evidence off to the lab (BECAUSE NO ONE HAS AN ON SITE LAB!) we wouldn't see results for months.  Each agent had about 7-15 active cases they were working at a time and you rotated duty week per team and we only had two teams for GC so we were picking up new cases every other week. Shit was brutal, almost cost my marraige. I think one of the worst parts about that show is every time I saw my dad he would smack me on the back of the head while saying "DiNozzo!". Not funny after the first 50 times. All in all some great stories and I wish I was still in LE, but it was a rough job.
 
I was an 5811(MP) in the Marine Corps. Criminal Investigation Division (CID) is real. There is also Naval Criminal Investigation Division (NCIS). I've work close with both investigative divisions. And they do nothing like the shitty TV show is.

You are telling me that NCIS doesn't take point on direct action counter terrorism raids?
 
As much as I love to crush your hopes and dreams, I regret to inform you that all they do is investigate crimes and push a metric F*** ton of paperwork.
 
Don't even get me started on the paperwork. In Army CID we had more stringent reporting requirements than the FBI. And our crime scene notes were impeccable. In ASAC (CID school) to pass the crime scene portion of training you get a a normal size barracks with a body, weapon, bed, dresser, small nightstand, airplane bottle of JD, and some form of drug. You have 5 hours to cover all the requirements of analyzing a crime scene. You measure everything and I mean everything in the room, and then use 3 points to measure every item in relation to every other item in the room. Then you use an 8 point descriptive template to describe everything. All in all it took me 17 pages of legal size note pad to describe that tiny scene. Imagine what it looks like when you are investigating the SF dude that stole millions of dollars worth of supplies/weapons/ammo, and had an APC in his garage. FUN FUCKIN TIMES! :'(

PMC for Triple Canopy as a Medic, and Tactical EMT in Central PA. Hello gents

Lol you've got to be like 1 out of 15 Americans in TC haha. I think I saw a total of 3 in all of Iraq.
 
A PMC is not a Veteran of Military Service. I think that he is posting in the wrong thread because it clearly states "Military Vets" as this topic for this thread.
