Still serving. Have about 5 years to I got my 20. Not sure if I will get it then or not.

Started out as an 11B in the 82nd for a short stint. Been 18 series since then.

Still enjoy the hell out of what I do. At least most days.

I can't assert that my service was particularly arduous (no combat deployments). I loved it (mostly), went places I never would have gone otherwise, served with heroes I still admire, and lost some friends to action. And I earned a couple of bad knees and three broken vertibrae, but that's life. I'd not exchange the experience for another life.

 

[Oozlefinch]

Well, mine is a bit different.

USMC, 1983-1993. Primary MOS of Infantry (0311), but also Marine Security (8151), Marksmanship Instructor (8531), and Maintenance Management (0411).

US Army, 2007-present. First MOS was PATRIOT Missile Crewman (14T) 2007-2012, then Computer Technician (25B) 2012-present.
