Thank you for your service. Our Tier 1 units were modeled after the British commandos. Without our cousins like you god only knows where we'd be.Gator I wore the coveted Green Beret and was trained by former WW2 Cdos. Commissioned twice, first time from the ranks. 80 next year. If only I was 32 again.
