Who wants to see old pictures of me?

This is actually a post that works in conjunction with my next post. Keep in mind as you look at these photos, that some of them are getting pretty old and it shows in the hairstyles and glasses department. Not all the information is correct in the brief biography, but it wasn't off-base enough for me to ask for any changes.

Oh the memories! I didn't keep any of the pics from my stint in the Army, except the pics of my hubby and me. You did far more interesting things that I did, that's for damn sure!

Most of my interesting stuff happened in the Navy, but I hope some of my memories made you think of some of the funny stuff that we went through!

I did OSUT and Ft McCllelan...where were you?

Thanks much for adding me as a friend and posting. :)

Hugs,

Thanks adding me back. I'm new to LJ and I'm slowly finding people that are interesting. I'm trying to be less of an introvert too, difficult to do most of the time.

I went through basic training at Ft. Jackson SC. My advanced training was 6 months at the Naval Amphib base in Norfolk Virginia. The armed forces school of music. I got to play with Navy, Marine and Army boys. Heh.

I actually had a lot of fun when I was in. I'm sure I've forgotten 3/4 of every thing that happened. Met my husband met my husband when I was stationed at Ft. Lewis Wa., a lifetime ago.

Welcome to Livejournal!

At the time, basic was a miserable experience. One of my best friends is one of my old drill sgts. and this is the one who was 7 feet tall, a ranger and could make you hurt just by looking at you. There was a lot of blushing when he met my mom last year and we were telling stories.
