senior veterans.  The Army switched from serial numbers to SS numbers in 1969.  So much for privacy.  Another government fuckup.

Veteran's Day is fast approaching and I started to wonder, how many of my fellow brothers and sisters in arms are hanging around the boards? If so, what branch are you currently serving or did you serve in?  
 
I'll start... U.S. Navy.
And I'll wait for the jokes to roll in. :)

Drafted before the SSN and after the brown shoe army. We still ate C-Rats and K-Rats, the MRE hadn't been developed yet.

but several years after they went to SSN's instead of serial numbers. So I guess that while I am still an old fart, I am still younger than you, but the shit we ate when out in the field I am pretty sure dated back to WWII. lol

I did serve, but my "sacrifice" was to spend a couple of years getting drunk in Germany. Not all vets are war heroes, and I save my "thanks for your service" to those that truly deserve it. If a person spent their entire tour safe and sound in the motor pool, they most certainly don't get any hero treatment from me.

but gawd where those things nasty. The only way you could smoke them was after a couple of weeks in the field with nothing else to smoke.

I still remember using every non smokers cigarette rations each month. Cigs went for a buck a carton at the PX and sold for about ten bucks a carton downtown. That's what paid for most of my drinking and pussy money back when I was making a whopping $150 every two weeks for a paycheck

$1.25 a bottle, any brand you desired.  One thing I can't get my head around is having troops in the field with no booze. I've been told the Muslim countries are dry.  Hard to imagine.

I was fortunate enough to have served in Deutschland and when in the field I always had a dozen or so "nip" bottles of Jaeger to cut the cold.  

Serving in a "dry" country is completely unthinkable to me. I would probably end up as a dead war hero, not out of heroism, but simply because I was pissed that a bunch of religious kooks were keeping my from having a cold one. lol (I will confess, I've been tempted to go all postal in the religious south where dry counties still exist today)
