    I'm a Chief Petty Officer in the Navy Reserve, and a lot of my friends are into cars and motorcycles. I'm sure there are other Military Service members with 308/328's, but are there any that post on here? - Rusty

    Yep - US Army SFC (E7) and have owned my '85 GTS QV for three and a half years now.

    There are quite a few others, but I wont speak for them - I will let them pipe in as they want to.

    Currently, I am in Afghanistan and up in Silver Subscribed I have a whole thread dedicated to my adventures over here.

    Rusty,

    I'm retired Navy 1976-96. I enjoyed my active duty days ... boy does that seem like a long time ago now. Living in Virginia Beach, I still feel somewhat connected to the Navy with so much activity here. Best wishes in your career.

    I'm a Navy Vet (1967-1979), which probably makes me the oldest on this site, but I'm willing to entertain challenges. I was a Data Systems Technician, a rating that no longer exists, and worked on NTDS, the predecessor to AEGIS. Made Chief (E-7) in just under 8 years.

    Ex Royal Air Force. Restored my 308 when in the mob, fortunate enough I ran the motor club on base so had access to all equipment. Still involved with military as Allison Transmissions are in most mil vehicles and I am the sales manager for them.

    Respect for all of you guys!!!

    I love aircrafts, and I love fighters like the F-16, or the historical Aardvark F-111, F-14 Tomcat, F-15 Eagle, F-104, AV-8B... Or the modern F-117, F-35, F-22 or the prototype YF-23 Black Widow.
    I wanted to become a fighter pilot, but was not possible because I was wearing correcting eyeglasses... Lots of envy... :)
