I don't know, but he did multiple tours there. He was a Power Production guy and Automotive Maintenance, IIRC. He would've been an E-7 or E-8 in that time frame.

He's an ex-Recovery guy (not smart enough for it to bother them). The other 2 I know of that post here are almost as bad.
The fact he used to be an NBC Instructor just shows he may actually have a brain.

Arioch, just so you know, my current military position with the Army Guard is Recovery Supervisor. Tank is one of my guys. We're obviously not dumb, but it makes a good joke.
I'm just glad we're getting rid of our SP's, so we can turn in our M88's. Pull anything, but damned sure maintenance intensive.
I love your sense of humour.

Tank, this is a strange place to discuss it, but, yeah, they're very maintenance intensive, on the Direct Support end of things.
Besides, the Gun Bunny's usually need baby-sitting, but after the last 2 or 3 drills, you already know that.

I was a DS platoon Sgt. in a DS/GS company for a while. Everything with tracks is a maintenance hog, but I do love those M88's. There's something about a ranch house on tracks that just appeals to me.![[rofl]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/013.gif "ROFL [rofl]")

Yeah, but I like my 2 nice new Osh-Kosh's (M984A2 HEMTT Wreckers). Also have an older one.
Ask Tank what the milage is on his truck. Just over 300 miles. It was put in storage until earlier this year.

Never had HEMTTs. My platoon had 3 squads, each with a deuce and a half, a 5 ton wrecker, and a contact truck. Left the system in '95. As an instructor, I was becoming increasingly fed up with the nit-picking and lack of support. Even though every student that passed my reserve duty course went on to pass (and do well in) the ADT phase, I kept getting pushed to stay closer to "established teaching parameters" which just didn't seem to work for training NBC specialists.

Looks like you and I have laid in some of the same dirt. PMI out of New River and Cherry Point, shot on both base teams. Was a PMI at MCRD PI until they decided my career may better survive assignment at TBS in Quantico. Seems the mothers of America managed to get things changed a little.

Why am I not surprised? I almost got canned over my language at PI. Wasn't very welcome at TBS either. I can be rather colorful with the vernacular when consciousness becomes elevated. Especially in the area of safety. I bet I can go on for at least 5 minutes without repeating myself.

Marines 1969 1973, mos 0311. grunt. Did a tour in Vietnam with E. company 2nd Bn 1st marines 1st mar. div DaNang..
I guess its my turn to step up and give my USAF military bio:
1984 - 1985 Judge Advocate General's Office, Vandenberg AFB, CA
1985 - 1986 Chief of Military Justice, Vandenberg AFB
1986 - 1988 Area Defense Counsel, Vandenberg AFB
I left as a Captain, and made a clean break. No reserve duty, other than the Indefinite Reserve Status that all active duty folks, I think, have to do.
They didn't really let JAGs touch guns, so there was precious little shooting back then for this buckaroo.
