I enlisted in December 1985, went to boot camp in Orlando in 1986, then got a direct commission in 1995.

Unfortunately, due to the distance, I must forego helping to toss you into the sea. ;)

Or you could pretend you have real nuts, stop being a leech on honest, hard-working Americans and enlist, then you actually earn the right to engage in the light hearted yet sometimes cruel branch rivalry.

Porkchop, that's great!! What rank?

I got my butter bar in 1995. But because I had enlisted 10 years prior, by the time I made LCDR I had 20 years. I thought that would be it for me but then I was selected for CDR. The chances of making CAPT is so slim that it looks like CDR would be my top rank before I got out. That is why this wetting down is so special that I had to invite everyone.
