Gentilemen,

This will push up the Army numbers a bit.

I'm still on active duty with the US Army with 26.5 years and counting.

Since the Marines are a branch of the Navy, our little helpers, shouldn't those numbers be added to the Navy numbers?

I was in the Royal New Zealand Navy for 22.5 years and I had a great time a public expense[;)]. Please note that the navy is, and will always be, the senior service. So if it comes to a split count then navy wins[:D].

US Navy from 1964 to 1968. Stationed aboard the USS Willard Keith (DD775) at Norfolk and the USS Barton (DD772) at Philadelphia. Four of the best years of my life, other than the 42 I've spent with my wife Rosanna and the 21-33 with four daughters.

USA from Dec 6, 1971 thru Oct 1, 1980. Enlisted after winning the draft lottery, yup, two jars, one with a number and the second one with a date, matched my birth date with #1. Was trained as a Draftsman, worked as a Surveyor, Illustrator and Chaplain's Assistant.

Owe uncle Sam for the wonderful years with my with (33) whom I met when stationed in Taiwan in '73-'74. Spent the next 6 years in Maryland (2) and Virginia (4) before moving back home to Washington State.
