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!

Here's one taken in the dorm just after graduating from BMTS in 1983 and another one taken a month later hamming it up at the Munitions Maintenance tech school in Denver (FYI: it took me three years to get a similar photo of me on a B-61 Nuclear Weapon.)

After seeing some of those already posted, I suppose I shouldn't regret this. Or maybe...

This is the earliest one I have on my computer. My Dad U.S. Army (1960) and me in 1995.

Ahhh.....fresh meat! Port Arms was not quite Strac yet! But, they made me a squad leader anyway.

Not to hurt anyone's feelings, I was in basic at Ft. Bliss in 1966 and think I looked a lot like this. Were we all Sad Sacks?
