After 20 years and 7 days (more than six of those years being in God forsaken shitholes overseas)...I AM RETIRED FROM ACTIVE DUTY!!!!!

BRING ON THE BEER. *****ES. AND 9-BALL!!!!! (hold the *****es, as my better half would not approve)

Just felt like sharing...as I haven't been in THIS good of a mood in a very long time.

Take care, y'all.

That's awesome news! I'm in the army and just got selected for warrant officer at 11 years in. I was planning on doing the whole 20 just not enlisted.

I can't wait till I'm in your shoes. Maybe you should go to a strip club, that we can have those b****es for one night.
 
That's awesome....congrats Mark, and thanks for your service !! Now time to buy yourself a nice retirement present (aka fine lumber). :thumbup:
 
Wow! You deserve it for your dedication. Take some time off, go visit the mountains and clear your head.

The grab the cue and go to town.
 
thank you for your service. i did 24 mostly on the medical side navy/marines. yes there can be some horrid overseas duty, mine was mostly shipboard and conus. gerald
 
Well, Congratulations!! Welcome to the life of a retiree.

Now then, are you going to kick back for a while and relax, or are you planning to become a Beltway Bandit?

Good luck, no matter what you decide.

Congrats, thanks for the your service, and best of luck.

20 years??? You went into the service right around when I graduated high school. I have my 20 year reunion coming up next month.

20 years goes by pretty fast.

Thanks, fellas!!!!

It feels AWESOME to be free and clear. Can't believe 20 years went by so fast...and so slow, at the same time!

I am so excited to be 'a regular guy' now.

20 years of service means you will never be just "a regular guy." You have earned the right to be called SPECIAL and that is for sure. Thank you for your service. Enjoy it, you earned it.
