Balance of my 6 year enlistment was as an inactive reservist.
I was drafted by President Eisenhower September 9, 1953 and assigned to the 3rd ID. I was discharged September 8, 1995. So, I slept with an M1 for 2 years.....Then, I joined the Air Force Reserve. We were activated for Operation Desert Storm in December 1990 and stayed in the Desert until May 1991. We had A-10 aircraft. I retired in 1993 at the mandatory retirement at age 60 after 40 years in uniform. If I had it to do all over again, I would do the same thing. I don't think anyone ever took a shot at me, if they did they missed.
