Albert,
Having served in the US Army‘s 1st Battalion, 501st
Infantry Airborne, I am always a little sceptical about
ANYONE who chose to capitalize on his experiences in the
Service. Does he think he‘s doing anyone a favor? Is he
God‘s gift to the Airborne, or something?
How long was he in? Is it difficult to become a Sergeant?
By the way...what are the ranks of service in the Canadian
Army?
