PS.com QP Group Distribution
When we started, I believe that most of the QPs on the Board were from 7th Group. We have grown quite a bit, and I wonder if that is still the case. Thus, this poll.

You forgot to add the 17th and 12th SFGAs to the list or at least use a deactivated Group status to cover all deactivated group people.
In my case, the only two groups that I served in was the two I mentioned.

I think I can clear up something for you VOLAR era troops. In previous days, personnel rotated, not groups. Overseas tours had the following duration.
1st Gp - Oki 3 years
5th Gp - RVN 12 months.
8th GP -Canal Zone 2 years
10TH Gp -Germany 3 years.
46th Co - Thailand 2 years.
These are for accompanied married personnel. They were sometimes shorter for unaccompanied and single personnel.
Tours at Bragg were for 1 - 3 years. There were professional homsteaders but these were the normal tours.
As a result, the longer you served in SF the more groups you may have served in.

I would have asked "What Group do you claim as home."

Don't ask. I would have to say I have fond memories of all but the 7th and the Ft. Bragg version of the 5th.

Well, if you're just going to make stuff up - never mind.

Let me be more specific. I loved Germany, Panama and Thailand. I even liked Vietnam better than Bragg. 
If I picked where I got the best and mos meaningful training it would be the 10th in Bad Toelz. 
Let me quailfy even further. If in the beginning the 7th had gone to Germany and the 10th stayed at Bragg -- with everything being equal my opinions would probably be juxta positioned. IMO it is the location and mission not the number or color of the flash.
