Just a shower thought. Obviously depends on the industry, but in terms of electronics I fee enthusiast grade (think gaming motherboards, for example) are better built than professional grade. Thoughts?

That’s unfortunate to hear about the new stuff. I was really hoping to check out some of the new gear before my ETS, but it never happened. I guess I didn’t miss anything.
You were 13F? Wild, man! I went to basic at Ft. Sill where you would have done your AIT. I was thinking about re-classing as 13F at one point, since y’all were harder than woodpecker lips. Did you go to Rucker when you got attached to an aviation unit?
Yeah I was 13F. Even got through JFO school at one point. It was a cool job and other 13Fs were pretty legit just about across the board. The tricky bit they don’t tell you is that you get attached to infantry and usually by yourself so you’re the only guy in the room that can count higher than 4.
I went to Riley. Kansas sucks to drive through but it wasn’t a bad place to live. Stayed there for about 3 years and went off to the next place.
What was your MOS? I’m guessing 13 series?
67N, helicopter mechanic and crew member. I really wanted to go airborne, but my unit wouldn’t pay for it. I should have got it in my contract when enlisting, then I could have gone right after AIT. That’s when you’re at the height of fitness anyways, after six months straight of training, so airborne school wouldn’t be quite as hard. I petitioned my unit several times during AIT, but the answer was always no. Oh well! Not going probably saved my knees. Did you see any combat? I was too young for the 1st Iraq war, and got out right before 9/11, so I never went to war.
