My father served in the ANG, and my daughter and future son-in-law are both full time with the ANG. My daughter was among the last of the troops pulled out of Iraq in late 2011.

Thank you for the opportunity! I served from 89-2010 in the USAF. I was fortunate Neto be stationed in Mountain Home,ID as my first base. Got to go pretty much everywhere in the world. I’m blessed to have done so. Thank you for the chance, and to everyone who served.

Thanks again Q for your generosity and support!

I am a third-generation Air Force pilot. Grandfather B-24s in WWII, father rescue helos in Vietnam then C-141s.

I ended up flying the same tail numbers as my father on two separate occasions - once as a solo student in a T-38 at Laughlin AFB and later on in a C-141. The C-141 was the "Hanoi Taxi" and was the first airplane to bring re-repatriated POWs back from Vietnam. Very humbling to fly that airplane, knowing its history and that my father had flown it in the 70s.

I was active duty AF 1990-2000. Did the reserves for a couple of years and then bailed.

Thanks again!

In 1990 I left Hawaii for a remote tour in Alaska for a year. After that year, I got stationed at Nellis AFB, in Las Vegas. Upon arriving at my new job, I ran into a guy I was stationed with in Hawaii. WHen I said hey to him, he looked at me like he had no idea who I was.

"I can't believe you don't remember me, it's only been a year since we were at Hickam together!"

"Oh no,That was my twin brother Ron, I'm Don."


And I had a similar experience with a guy in the Navy. I flew T-1s on an exchange for a while at NAS Pensacola. Met a guy there, nice guy.

Cue about 7 years later and I see him in ops at my airline. "Hey, whatever! Remember me from Pensacola?" Blank stare.

You were the instructor Navigator and we flew together like 5 times with your Nav students. Glad to see you made it here."

He says "That's my twin brother. He's still in the Navy".

Oops.
