    Maybe he can pop some heads on the Taliban like the zits he pops on people’s faces in his dermatology practice! The tool for that treatment would be .50 cal!:gun: :gun: :gun:

    I’d go back in a hot second. Think they need 59 year old EOD men?

    At 56 I’m in.

    How in the world do you sign up for the Army and be handed a Lt. Col rank before you’ve even been to boot camp? This sounds like BS to me.

      Education. When I enlisted, one of the guys in basic was a specialist, same rank as the company armorer.

      I think to enlist as a specialist in the army you have to have a bachelors degree in education. But specialist is the highest you can go for enlistment.

      As far as commissioned officers go, I’ve heard men coming into the army as 1-star generals. Usually, of course, older men 50-60 years old with sufficient experience from elsewhere and security related.

    51 – me and an Army-issue Macmillan Tac-50 are rarin’ to go. I’ll be a grunt, a shit-barrel-burner, anything, just so long as I get a shot or several thousand!!
