I severed over 25 years in the Army and was in some memorable Units. Here are my top 5.

1. My first and best ever Division ever assigned to was the 3rd Armored Division from 1990-1991 in Budingen West Germany/Germany. I was amongst Vietnam Soldiers and they trained me exceptional.

2. My second choice is the 8th ID in 1991. I was stationed with the 5/3 ADA in Wackenhiem, Germany. Lots of memories at Hohnsfels and Graf.

3. I was in 7th ID from 1992-1993 at Fort Ord, California. I remember going thru 7 days of standards training before going to my permanent party unit. I wore the famous Rag-Doll Kevlar Cover. Went on 25 mile forced road marches and did PT on the Monterey beaches by Stillwell Hall on post.

4. Lastly, the 1st Cavalry Division at Fort Hood, Texas. I deployed to Afghanistan with the 2nd Armored Brigade, 1st Brigade Combat Team. I retired out of the CAV and the Army.

5. I served as a Drill Sergeant :
Becoming a DRILL SERGEANT IN DECEMBER 2005 and serving at Sandhill, Fort Benning GA; with C/2-47 IN "Charlie Rock, Panther Battalion". I owe it all to my Drill Sergeants and a lot more gratitude. Thanks for training me to fight, win and survive and what the word BATTLE BUDDY MEANS. Yea, didn't know then, but boyee did they watch my 6 and cover me while I moved (the U.S. Soldier).

The best several years of my military career were with AFSOC's 24th Special Tactics Squadron. Most awesome group of professionals I have ever had the privilege of serving with. This also afforded me many opportunities to work with the best DoD had to offer from all branches of the military, and a few others! Definitely good times!

Honestly, 5/10 Tango Battery wasn't bad. But I had so much more to remember when I was with Gulf 2/12 under 5/10
