Retired US Army. I was a Communications Center Operator (72B) during the early 70's. Did the Vietnam thing and got out in 1972. Went back in the Army in 1987 as a Tanker (19K) for 12 years (did the Desert Storm thing). Changed over to Ammo (55B/89B) (did the OEF/OIF thing). I'm getting a room ready for the layout .. and have no intention what so ever in modeling a desert .. been there .. done that. :)
