I don't say much. My last three years in I was 11B (also qualified as 16S) but I've never felt like I was really one. I spent those years as 11B in a Patriot unit in Germany. Each battery had a squad of 11B for security, but we were gofers used for guard duty more than anything. During Desert Storm my unit deployed to Israel, but I was in the one battery they left behind as rear detachment.
I started out as a 16P (Chaparral) my first two years, then re-enlisted 11B. I went to airborne school and tore up my knee jumping from a C-141 during jump week. It wasn't the landing, but the exit. I had a weak exit and the suspension lines wrapped around my lower right leg, whipped me upside down, and tore my knee up. Somehow I made the second jump that day, but they saw me limping and made me go to the medics, and I was done. I got 3 out of 5 jumps. My orders for the 82nd were canceled, I spent six months in rehab assigned to HHC 1/507 PIR, then went to 11B AIT. I then got sent to Germany into a Patriot unit in Giessen. That was a huge disappointment after expecting to go to an airborne unit.
Looking back I did have a somewhat interesting time in the military, and when I talk to other vets they often seem to find it cool that I was a 'duck hunter' (SHORAD). I have come to learn there weren't a lot of guys who were Vulcan/Stinger/Chaparral. Some of my experiences during my time in airborne school also make for some good story telling.
For the most part though, I stay quiet except around other vets. At the school I teach at we bring in a group of vets every year to talk to the kids. One of the guys was a crewman on the USS Pueblo and held as a POW by the NORKS. I don't talk and just stay in the back.
