Thinking of what the Team Sergeant said I would say that I served a complete tour in each OCONUS assignment I had. OTOH nobody could accuse me of homesteading.

Upon further thought, since the 46th Company was really Co D, 1st SFGA, I guess I served in all OCONUS Groups.

As much as I wanted to extend while in Germany or Panama I wouldn't have felt right ducking the SEA War Games. I took what came my way. As luck would have it, my last tour in SEA was in Thailand. That tour was so tough I had to marry a Thai girl and we have been together for 31 years.

I'd say in recent years we've been locked down to one SFG due in part to language capabilities. I’ve only been in two SFG’s during seventeen years myself.

Just a webmaster with an interest but not enough time.... I'll lurk on an occasional basis.

Hello All

Hello all,
I am an 18D who recently graduated Phase IV and I am studying French in Language School.

Thanks to all of the team guys who posted helpful hints on the old site. You guys do a great service to all of us still in the course.
I'm looking forward to some great discussions on this new site.

Introduce myself

Hello, everyone

Time for me to introduce myself. I am not one of the group members who has BTDT, but fortunate enough to know someone who was career BTDT. After many discussions on a variety of topics, he suggested I visit SOCNET where I lurked for a very long time. I 'quietly' began to lurk here, as well. Finally, I 'quietly' registered at both sites, only to have DNN call me out due to the thread on public school education !

My profile is filled out with one omission. Suffice it to say I am old enough to be the mother of approx. 90% of the members on SOCNET, so respect your elders .

The one area where words elude me is when I try to adequately express my admiration and gratitude for the men and women who have BTDT in all areas of service to our country. For now, I will just say "Thank You".

I look forward to meeting you all.

RoyCroft: Welcome. All I can say is that if you are old enough to be my mother you should be proud to have survived so long. Actually my mother is still alive and kicking and I turn 64 next month.
