Hi all,

Bret from N. Texas here, Wichita Falls. Hope all are well here. I've practiced and been taught many forms of art most of my life. But, at 54, and a disabled veteran, I'm discovering airbrushing as a new form. Got an airbrush while and for working with leathercraft staining. I loved using it so, I started airbrushing some art and now I think I'm hooked! Great to see an active forum too. Anyway, hey all.

Mr Micron,
I was a bb stacker. Munitions, all the boom booms, had my hands on anything from .22cal to nukes and everything in between.

Thanks to all for the warm welcomes.

AH Ammo humper got it ... I was 18DB4/55B I can't give it all away but prior service should know most of it . I served from 75 til 92.

 

[ammovet]

Ha! 55B That's basically same. I was AF and Army Guard. In AF, I was AMMO the orig 461 now 2wo. Served 87-94, shield and storm combat. Then went to guard after a two year break and was 11H tank killer, Heavy Anti-armor Weapons Crewman.(tows) IYAAYAS

 

[Mr.Micron]

Yeah I was told that 55b is now 89D But playing with Nukes is fun LMAO... I was part of sweeps after I finished all my training , MIA/POW sweeps , AX (Korea) 76 ,Honduras,Grenada,panama crisis and finished with Shield and Storm. But I mainly was a sniper in the most of the conflicts , I did do a stent with Jimmy Carter Well Billy to be more accurate, But I still look back on those times as the good old days.
So Redstone, Pine bluff and Aberdeen ?
And a lot more that ya know still can't say anything about ... They great thing about the Military do everything and anything but can't say a word about most LOL.
I still miss TDY pay.
