Hi Paul

Welcome to Escapees where there are a lot of very friendly folks here. If you have a question ask it, have an answer share it with us. Looks like you got out of the bees just as Vietnam was winding down. I went in the Navy July 1960 and retired April 1980, started as a Radioman then cross rated to CE. Made 3 trips to Nam. Again welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forums. I think you find a lot of answers and even find out that no everyone agrees with you 100% of the time but it interesting reading their posts. (even though you will know that you are more correct) Wife and I are both retired and enjoying life.

Paul46227,

I just noticed this morning that I did not welcome you to the discussion forum. I apologize!

You have definitely come to the right spot for RV information. There is a vast amount of knowledge from members on this forum. So read and post as much as possible. Believe me, you will learn from this experience.

Hugs,
Kellie

WElcome to both new comers.

Gee, maybe we should start our own F.R.A. branch here!!

I too started as a Radioman but also finnished that way...from code, dits & dahs, to Satellites!! Quite a ride!

Minus the brief broken service, 1962-1884. Twice to Nam on ships and once in-country on an advisor team.

CPO retired in 1984 and now still travelling.

Good group this one...you will learn a lot and enjoy good company.
