USMC 94-98, E4, 0151 Admin, MCB CPen
Originally wanted to be an MP, went to MEPS, found out my eyesight wasn't good enough, so my helpful friendly recruiter suggested "Legal Services". That's close right? lol Well I wound up General Admin, though in retrospect I'm glad I didn't wind up with Legal Services! I will say that my experience got me going with computer skills. Worked at Training Support Division, which became Range Operations Division with a lot of 1371's and an assortment of others on FAP to take a break from the fleet. Not a bad place to be. Can't believe I'll have been out ten years in January.
Time flies. Kind of miss California sometimes, but I'm glad I don't have to deal with their gun laws, etc. Illinois is bad enough.

Anyway just a friendly thread for all us prior military people. So What branch/MOS were you in? I was in USMC 6466 FLIR/Electro-Optical Technician.

I was in the Army Reserves for 6 years (still in the IRR for two more). I was in the 806th AG Postal Company out of March Air Reserve Base in CA (63rd RRC).
I did a 12 month tour of duty in the early days of the Iraq War.

Does a Merchant Marine captain and being the great great nephew of Smedley Butler count for anything? 
Seriously, thanks for the service, and for being part of the Revolution.
