Like my friend MacEanruig (above), I was U.S. Army parachute infantry, retired earlier this year after a little more than 31 years in.

Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

I was in the Air Force from 1975 thru 1984 and was stationed at Williams AFB in Arizona, Kitzingen Army Airfield in Germany, Fort Polk, Louisiana and Tinker Field in Oklahoma. My field was weather, which I am still interested in. The Air Force was a great time of growth in my life, and no regrets having served even though there were no wars during the time I was in. The best of all was that one colonel who shared Christ with me which changed my life forever. This was all wayyyyy before I ever dreamed of trying on a kilt. Well, maybe I thought about it once in a blue moon, since I do have Scottish heritage. But I found the one group that really has deep respect for veterans are Native Americans. Often when I have attended a Native get together, they honor veterans by having us stand. Cool. Anyhow, great to meet another ex military kilter.
