-=> Quoting Dennis Scott to Don Vally <=-

 DS> hard, quite the opposite really. I enjoyed it, got to travel all over
 DS> the world and even got a little bit of money each month for my
 DS> troubles. 

I did enjoy traveling while in the service.  I was stationed in
Europe for 9 years.  Travelled to Spain, Italy, England,
Switzerland and other places.  Most people would take their leave
time and go back to the states.  I thought, I'll never be here again
I should travel as much as I can.  I don't regret the service or
time I spent in the military.  I learned how to be an adult there.
It instills something in people that I don't see today.

 DS> headquarters for electronic security command - the super secret Air
 DS> Force command for people sort of like what you did but by that time
 DS> (1990's) it was mainly audio and data that they were listening
 DS> to/monitored. 

We called them SCIF's in the Army (Secure Confidential Information 
Facilities).

 DS> Anyhow, thanks for your service!! It was guys like you that kept us
 DS> safe at night whether most people knew it or not. 

I know it's cliche, but thank you for your service!  It's strange,
my dad was in the Army and he was in a Nike-Ajax ADA unit.  If you
look back on it now, all those people doing all those jobs that no
one ever thought about. Ever vigilant.

Thanks for the memories Dennis...
