I served as an F-15 pilot in the Gulf War.
I completed 12 missions, mostly radar search and destroy, but also some runs on Iraqi airbases and supply depots.
What force have you served in?

I just then thought vet as in vet vet, not vet veteran. I was going to assume non then since it's so bloody difficult.
But cool, F-15s rock my world.
I wish I could get in the RAF to fly though...

Is this wartime only? Combat duty? American only?

Sorry 'bout the misleading title, for those who though veteranarian.

Heh, after playing MGS2 and hearing the marine motto I had to go and look up what it meant, my Latin is a little rusty.
But it's cool having all these vets, I can only imagine what it must be like to fly a fastmover or perform an amphibious assault or something.
Bastards, give me a cool job!

What force have you served in?
You must have been one of the youngest pilots, are'nt you only 34?
I never served for which I am deeply ashamed, I got a DQ at MEPS.
My fault too, which makes it even worse.
