    If my retired ID ain't good enough then nothing is ;-)

    I still say the Navy's stories start with " This ain't no shit .... "
    Well, my Dad would start his stories with, "Wait, let me tell you this shit...." (USS Haddo SSN 604 Plankowner).

    Plus, we can just coin their asses..... It IS a cash bar situation last I heard, so that actually works.....

    Pending confirmation of a donation, we're planning to have a small (cash) bar setup for this meetup.

    We initially said 8PM, but it may be later (9PM or so) due to room setup. Stay tuned...

    C'mon...you should do a demo on gleaning info from the CAC in the Wireless Village. What could possibly go wrong? :)

    We're expecting you to have a valid DD-214 as well as a secondary form of documentation, such as a VA Home Loan Certificate of Eligibility or notarized CCCAF/AARTS/SMART transcripts. Failing that, we'll accept you for a beer and a good story.

    Ooh I'd love to see a poser show up and try to pass himself off as a vet. I already have a blast outing them in person when I see them.

    But to answer your question, I'll have my CAC card. :-)

    The NG stories I've heard always started with 'One time, on the 3rd Saturday of the month...'

    I'd burn that thing to the ground! Hate the GP Mediums and drash tents we gotta use.

    I'll find time in my work schedule to make it here and swap stories. Thanks for throwing this together prez
