I hope you will too.
Being an 18E you would probably appreciate the way I was notified of my daughter's birth. We had just laid an ambush and had pulled off to some high ground to send a SITREP. We were out of FM range so we cranked up the an AN/PRC-64 that we had brought along. Couldn't raise the team house but did get to Nha Trang. Passed the SITREP and got back a msg telling me that I was the father of a baby girl. My radio operator told me that the msg was classified, handed me a trigraph and the code pad page and told me that I had to decrypt it. This sly fox had already figured it out. Best OJT I ever had.
