UPDATE of our Status

[Salty]

I may have done this in the past - but lets do an updated poll - as we have many new members

Let us know what what pay grade, MOS/Rating/AFSC, duty stations and any other pertinent information of your time in uniform

Also - & this may not pertain to many - but indicate if you were drafted
I did include spouse - as (I believe) the spouse is part of the military - (even if she was not issued by DoD).
