Howdy,
My name is Mike Dinesman.  Went through the 18E and 18D course in the 80's and 90's.  Got out when Slick Willie took over.  Saw some friends of mine get screwed over and decided to quit moaning about how poor officer leadership was and do something about it.  Was an Infantry Officer in 3ID before going to the 18A.  Complained a lot about ankles and knees, got some surgery, lost 1/3 ROM in my right foot, and found something else to do.  Am now a 35D.  Just finished up the most rewarding year of my last 20 in Colombia as a Senior PATT in SATMO.  Am now working J2 NATO in a Rapid Deployment unit, that isnt so rapid and doesnt deploy.  But hey, I get to live in Valencia, Spain for 3 years!
