zagnut 0 Posted December 12, 2004 Hey guys, I made E-4 yesterday. Of course I had the blood rank... The crap beaten out of me. Fur cryin' out loud.... I made E-4 5 years ago! NOW, I have to endure this again?? For some reaon, I'm always bruised and battered when I come home to my gal. I guess I should'a stayed away from the U.S.M.C.

zagnut 0 Posted December 18, 2004 Sorry fellas, didn't mean to mislead... I used to be in the Marines, but as far as the ARMY goes, they do the same thing. Sheesh, I though the most elite CAV UNIT would be a little more gentile, but I guess not.. FYI- I'm with the 11th CAV from Ft. Irwin, CA. We're now on X-mas Exedous, so if you guys have questions, I'll be hitting the forums everyday just like I used to, since I'm home for a few very, very nice couple of weeks. I have a troop picture for you guys, I'll have it up soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zagnut 0 Posted December 19, 2004 Ok, I got the troop pic. I'm the one second from the right in the 3rd row. The place we took it at is an area we call "Painted Rock". It's the insignia of all the units to come thru NTC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
