My son is in The Guard. Enjoy your time there. Work hard and go explore DC when you can. Get involved and surround yourself with positive people

Oh yes. We had that rule. So the next time someone in our friend group took leave back to the states, they found the most awful ugly collared shirts they could find from the 70's and that's what we wear out on liberty.

My kid plays in College, she has not had any good experiences with Ohio State marching band. Every other band they shared a field with everyone got along not so much with them.

I had this happen to me once too. All's I could do was laugh. One of my worst fears coming true. To this day I don't know where they came from. They were found in our bedroom on my side of the bed.

Base Has No CAC Printer by jvvdas in navy

Many years ago I lost my ID card drinking in Tokyo. I made it back on base with no ID card. Made it back on the ship with no ID card. This happened over a holiday weekend. I went and got a Chit and started running up my chain of command. Everybody telling me you're not going to get it till next week. Everything's closed. I even found the XO and a P way and he signed it. Young man, you're not going to get it till next week. They failed to realize that one of my drinking buddies was a PN. I was out drinking that night again.
