SPC Tyler Frampton: Of course they count. Sounds like what you did in the military to me. I just pray that the danger isn't there for you anymore.

Yes, I was an AGE/Ground power mechanic in the Air Force working on Engine generators, A/C and heating equipment used to service aircraft on the ground. When I was discharged after working a 5 month job in an almond huller and 3 months in a sheet metal shop I got my career job with the FAA working on engine generators, A/C, heating and ventilation equipment and visual NAVAIDS. I did that for 16 years and then cross trained to the electronics side of the FAA (made a lot more money) and worked on VOR, TACAN, DME, ILS, communications equipment and weather systems, I did this for another 16 years and retired after 32 years with the FAA. Even though I'm retired I still have my own business maintaining weather equipment at airports that aren't maintained by the FAA. Joining the Air Force was the best thing I ever did it got me off the farm!

Sounds like joining the Air Force stood you in good stead; SSgt David Swart. I am very impressed with you.
