Congrats and THANK YOU for your sevice. I was newly inducted into the U.S. Navy and was in Millington Tenn. for "A" school. Wow long time ago 

Hello Rob!

If the war broke out my pops would fight against you! That's why I'm so glad the things turned out the way they did - and we can be friends instead of enemies.

So - are you celebrating the anniversary?

In any case, have a nice day!

Thank you for your service, Rob.

Time flies when you’re having fun... it’s amazing how the world has changed in those 30 years.

Hi ROB ;

 As you know most of us fellow members served . I thank you personally for your service .Remember this , as an immigrant I feel strongly about the U.S.A. and those who serve her .  Men like You made it possible for me to have a good life .

  I do know that my time in two different uniforms was something that makes me say , even at 74 , if needed I would step up again ! Thank You ,,T.B.

I'd go back onto active duty in a minute.

I agree if I was asked to serve again I would step up. Our freedom isn't free and I truly miss the camaraderie, espri d' corps, heck sometimes I miss the feeling of being on the ship, the noise, the smells, the feeling of power my vessel expressed. Sorry shared to much for this thread. Yep I would go again.

Thanks as well from me for your service Rob.

Thank you, Rob, for your long and faithful service.

Thanks for your service, Rob! Did you retire, or, are you still active duty? I arrived at Parris Island on 22 Feb 1984, and got out of the Corps 06 July 1995, with service in the First Gulf War. Never regretted a minute of it, and would go back in a heartbeat, if they would have me (too old and too many medical issues now....).

Interestingly, my wife was in Mannheim in the mid-80s as well (with her first husband). She was there for three years, but I'm not sure of the dates.

I retired in July 2011 after 24 years of active duty. With the four years I did in the Guard while in college, it was 28 years of time in service. I turned down an assignment as the Deputy Director of Tactical Wheel Vehicle Development in the Pentagon so I had to retire. It was a nominative assignment, meaning a board selected me so I either had to go or had to retire.

Thank you Rob I bet you have a lot of stories to tell
