~S~

As you can see, everyone has done their part and served their country in every shape, form and capacity. Just to wear the uniform is an honor in itself. Yesterday in San Jose, Ca., I marched in the Veterans Day Parade in my Winter Weight BDU's and soft cap along with many of those guys I served with in boots as well.

USMC: 84-89. Served primarily as a Communicator as well as a Naval Gunfire Spotter later in my enlistment. Deployed onboard the USS Belleau Wood LHA-3 with Battalion Landing Team 3/1, 11th MAU in January of 1987 from Camp Pendleton for a "WESTPAC".

US Army: 89-2006. Served in three different Mechanized Infantry Companies, the last company being a Bradley unit where I served as the Companies Master Gunner and main instructor for mounted IFV gunnery and crew qualification.

I was up at 6AM getting suited up. I had to drive some distance to just get to a Vet center in order to just get organized and ready to "walk" over to the start of the actual parade. We walked in the parade and then walked back to the vet center to drive back home and then went to my Dojo afterwards. As a result, I crashed out pretty hard last night.
