US Army, May 2007 (June '03 entered the Academy) to Present, one tour to Iraq.

My father -- US Army, May 1982 to May 2007, 25 years, tours to Kuwait, Iraq.

Grandfather -- US Army, unsure of the dates, but two tours of duty in Vietnam including a Purple Heart among other decorations.

Here's the former CPT Smith, US Army Retired, discussing his first tour as a Platoon Leader in Vietnam (he was a Company Commander in this video). When someone found this video online and sent it to my family it was surreal to watch.

WWII combat father. I was only a cub scout.
Your family history be impressive.
I only wish we could win a war, any war, after WWII.
