I guess by the PFC that christian served in the army. bobsaigon was in the Peace Corps, which I think is a great idea. So anyone else do military service? I'm sure there must be a couple of ex SAS or Seal Team members here.

I just got in touch with a Military Police Assoc here in Ireland. I spent 6 years in the Army (18-24), which included one of the best periods in my life - 6 months in Lebanon with the UN. Great times.

Gotta admit, I never really had the ambition to head over to some place like Iraq to spread some freedom by killing a bunch of people.

There was a time when I really wanted to join the Un though, and go on actual peacekeeping missions though. Never happened though, and too old now. Don't think they take 36yo recruits.

When I was in Lebanon I spoke to a civilian UN worker, and really wanted to do the same thing when I got home. It didn't happen for one reason or another

I was in the special forces section of the Salvation Army but resigned as they refused to issue me with the latest model of assault tambourine !

I was in the Navy, 1982-86, most of that time in Asia. This included two trips to Pattaya and one to Phuket. Those were the days.....

I shagged a junior officer off the Dunoon car ferry in his uniform - does that count as Military Service?

Of course SG. In case of war, the ferry could be requisitioned as a troop carrier.
