Always a build in it's self. lol. At least there isn't much going on in Korea. Better than Afghanistan. I narrowly dodged a deployment to Kuwait myself.

I heard it wasn't so bad in Kuwait. Iraq was fun (sarcasm). Glad to know you made it home safe.

aw damn you. I wanted to be one so bad, but the Army wont let me. (Color blind) regardless of the fact that i studied as an auto mechanic. Even our CW3 doesn't understand why. Ironically, I'm not supposed to be a 92G (cook) because of the color of one of the burners we used to use. O.o

I think it's because of the CUCV's and how they were civilian trucks on a 24 Volt system up front. That and MAYBE fluids...

true...but with fluids i usually go by smell or taste...im sure you know about the common POL the army uses...the color of 15/40 10w and 80/90 is almost the same...but they have different taste and smells.
