Wow Doug, you did a lot in 20 years. I'm curious though, what is the "-special duty" behind the second Flight Simulator?

C-130 loadmaster with the Alaska Air National Guard. Best enlisted job in the Air Force. I got to go to 45 countries during my career. Active duty was spent in the Marine Corps.

The Road to SSG/E-6 has been a hard one. I started in 1989 as a Tanker or 19E - M60A3 Armor Crewman, then transitioned to 19K - M1 Abrams Crewman " Jedi Tankers", then transitioned to a 19D - Cav Scout. I spent all of my years in line units, but now as an old fart, I have moved to a schoolhouse to be a 19D ALC (BNCOC) instructor, just need a few more years to be done. Thank goodness, this body is starting to break down...

Hey TXShark, I'm just up the road from you a bit (Roman Forest). E-5 (SSgt in the AF) was my sticking point. BNCOC (B Knock). I haven't heard that term in years. Thanks for bringing up some great memories of old friends throughout my years of service (my last two locations were joint Army/AF/Navy/Marines/Canadian/Aussie and NSA civilians).

Thank you... Like many of us on here, it's a lifestyle, a sense of pride, and a devotion to duty that keeps us in. Unfortunately, only a few more years left before I'm forced to retire, but I think I'm ready for that, too.

Thanks again.

I highly recommend it! "Work" is a four letter word for a reason.

USAF 85-94. Nothing exciting, personnel spec, mostly customer service (IDs, dependent enrollment, etc) and PRU (mobility). Other than basic and Kessler for training, spent my time at Langley AFB. Retiring next month from the post office, traded one blue uniform for another. Lol
