I am an U.S. Army Veteran. I served during Desert Shield / Desert Storm.
I entered the U.S. Army right after graduating high school in 1982. I served 4 years. Got married. And got out.
After 2 years back in civilian life, my lack of financial knowledge landed me in a bad situation. While out looking for a job, I was sitting at a traffic light and noticed the recruiting office. “Hmm… I wonder”, I thought to myself. I was back in the Army for another 4 years.
This time my M.O.S. (Military Occupational Specialty) was 88M (or Eight Eight Mike).
