C4 US Veterans

On this Veterans' Day, I want to acknowledge those of you Corvette Jockeys that served in the the US Armed Forces. I want to encourage you to post a pic of yourself in uniform so that we may honor the soldier in you. I am proud to have been a member of your fraternity, the greatest fraternity on Earth!

Sp5

I was a Army SP5, unfortunately when I remarried the step-daughter didn't like it and shredded every picture I had with me in it (including my service pictures) at that time.
