I had a great career and worked for some wonderful supervisors. My greatest satisfaction was working as a First Sergeant and helping the troops. I almost wish I could relive those days again. The Air Force has moved on with changes that this old dinosaur wouldn't be able to make. I do not believe that they are all for the good. Doesn't matter though, every thirty years things change back to what they used to be. Don't believe me? Watch.

Best Moment Finishing my tour
Worst Moment Emergency leave. Also when the blackbirds were in for the fall harvest. Slippery birdshit everywhere and constant noise at night. Got Histplasmosis from the droppings in one lung.
