If you have served in the military, let us know what branch and how long and what you did, i just wanted to extend a big THANKS and appreciation for what you have done.......I know you guys don't get recognition but here is some from me.....i have family that has been in the military and i have lost family so for what you guys have done can never be forgotten! I am a huge supporter of the military and try to shake hands with a military man/woman in uniform and tell them thanks for what they do or have done for this country!

Well said! There is no words to thank em enough!

Well said Justin, many share your view. I thank each & every person that I know has served it is they who allow us to walk around free each & every day.

I can't even begin to imagine taking the sacrifices that you guys have taken. For that, I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

I know there is alot of BSing on here and one picking on the other but when it comes to our men and women in uniform there is one thing i know we can all agree on and thats our love and support for the US military!

Thanks guys! Now who wants to put my uniform on and work for me this weekend????

MMT staff and it's members have always had a great honor and respect to our military. They're the ones who do what they do to keep us free and my hats off to them all.

That's why I created the Military Forum here on MMT, as we have quite a few members who are active and veterans. It's forum dedicated to them because that's the least I could do to honor them and their service to our great country.

May God Bless you all!

Enlisted in 88', Commissioned in 94' as a Field Artillery officer. Currently a LTC stationed at Ft Campbell, KY and in Afghanistan for 2 more weeks on a 1 year tour with the 101st Airborne. Gonna do a few more years and then hang it up.

Regleg Did you train at Fort Sill OK? I did my basic there back in 92 then sat in Fort Stewart for 4 years playing with tanks

Enlisted in 2000 as a Abrams Tank crewmember, spent 3 yrs in Germany/Iraq 2003 then fort knox ky for 1 yr then to recruiting for 3.5 yrs, back to knox for 1 yr and now residing at fort hood tx 1 yr and counting,where I am currently pending medical review for TBI from 2003 deployment. Whatever happens I will remain, Staff Sergeant U.S army cavalry and proud of it.

Rehead how do you feel about the whole army going to the stetsons?

Haven't heard about that one. But I'd say hell no, the Stetson is something for cav as it has been for ever and should be left alone. But then again this is the first I've heard of it. Now if they'd go back to the patrol cap again, I'd say soldiers would be much happier.

Yeah that's what I heard. I think it stupid. That would be like the whole Marine Corps wearing French Fourragere

Yea, it was bad enough when they went to th beret and had the rangers pissed. Besides that a good Stetson costs around a hundred bucks. I'd like to know how they budget that when they can't even figure on how to pay us.

Haha no chit. Might just add money to the clothing allowance

Yea that's how they justify most of those expenses. Idk it will be interesting for sure.

The swith to the beret was a horrible idea. It should have been left for rangers, airborn, and SF.

much appreciation from us to the boys overseas

Just repaying the debt someone payed for me years ago.

I did 4 years in the Navy 1984 - 1989. Was on the aircraft carrier Forrestal. Worked crash & salvage on the flight deck. I thank God that i was young and by myself. I don't think I could stand leaving my wife and kids for a year at a time to go on deployments. I really feel for the guys that have to do that. Always thank a veteran because you can be you and live in this great country for the sacrifices they make to keep it that way.

1995 to 2004...10 years in the MN army national guard as a Communication guru; got out as an E-5 SGT.

Wasn't allowed to go overseas due to shoulder issues and needing me to help train soldiers going over.
-Worked with GE training with the equipment
-Cold weather specialist
-And a shooting instructor/range helper

Once again guys thanks and feel free to share sotries on here also! I could read them all day

I never served but wnat to say thanks for all the men and women who have. My hats are of to you guys thank you guys for keeping us safe over here and protection our freedoms
