ALL New Connections - Back by Popular Demand! I'm still receiving some great photos from all you RP Members. THANKS!
Keep them coming!
All you photogenic military personnel out there in RP Land let’s have a little photo session just to lighten it up today! Share the first photograph or the earliest photograph of yourself when you entered the military and tell us the date of the photo.
I'll start with Private Burroughs in 1975 at Fort Leonard Wood, MO & end with Colonel Mikel in 2005!

I was fortunate. The pic was with my mother while I was out of the country. Her house burned but the pic was one of the few things that survived.

The First Photo was taken 1990 at the recruiting station in NYC, the second is in 1994 in Korea on the Signal Mountain with North Korea behind me, the Third taken 1997 in Germany as a SGT for the promotion board, the Last is this year as I was inducted into the New York State Senate Veterans Hall of Fame class of 2017 for my work with veterans on Long Island. What changes over the years..

Do you all see the incredible history you have preserved here? You should do other themes and post photos to memorialize different areas of military service - just a thought. This is fascinating to scroll through.
