I deployed to Bosnia/Herzegovina from Sep 00 to March 01 and saw the hottest women in the world and learned that the Serbs are total ASSHOLES. I was in Iraq from Jan 03 to July 03 and we raped them on our way to Baghdad. We took over the airport and I learned that Kuwait is worse than hell with winter temperatures as low as 30 degrees (not much, but when you consider it gets to 80 in the day the temp difference will kill you), to as high as 140 degrees (98 degrees felt COOL at night).

Finally, I went to Fort. Irwin, CA for NTC (National Training Center) a total of FOUR times. I hated it every single time. I got out as a E4 Specialist. To those still serving, I salute you!
