Woulnd't call myself a veteran but I did my compulsory military service in '95-'96. It is so much more nicer to just remember it

Wow, it is surprising to see how many have served in the military. I am currently in the US Navy, on board the USS TOLEDO SSN 769. Not an easy life, but not being able to spend any money for six months at a time leaves plenty of money saved for swords

Are you logging into myArmoury.com from the ship? If so, is it a fairly high-speed connection? I'm curious.

Logging in from the ship? Not hardly. I am at my apartment right now, we just got out of drydock after returning from the war in Iraq. Occasionally we get email when underway, but unlike the rest of the Navy we don't have an internet connection. Or sunlight and milk.......

Hi Mac,
I did 7 years active USAF, and the rest in the National Guard, both Army and Air. Currently
I'm on involuntary call-up down in South Carolina, doing weather forecasting for bases
overseas, such Afghanistan and Pakistan. Been down here 4 months and look forward
to getting home (hopefully) the end of October. Keeping fingers crossed that everything
goes as planned.
Alex
