New Blood!
By John
Welcome to our new full-timer, Townie 76 (it's a VMI thing) --aka Col Hank. His bio, now linked at the About Us page.
Townie 76 aka COL Hank was born in Lexington, Virginia and graduated VMI in 1976. He entered the Army in November 1976 as an Armor Officer. He left the Army in 1984 and joined the Virginia Army National Guard where he remained until 1998 when he returned to Active Duty as a Title 10 Active Guard and Reserve Officer. He retired from the Army on 31 July 2006 and was recalled to active duty the next day where he is now beginning his third year as a recalled retiree. COL Hank has served in various Command and Staff assignments in his thirty two years of service, to include assignment in Korea, Germany, Kosovo, Iraq, and Kuwait. He currently is the Command Historian and Chief of the Red Team for United States Army Central (USARCENT aka as Third Army).
Army just won't let the guy retire. Anyway, needed to get a full bird Colonel on board to keep our twin O-5s in check... and to bring balance to the force (Marines were running the show for the past year). We'll have an OPFOR email address up for him shortly (hopefully) and maybe finally get archive pages linked for our newbie AND poor Bullnav... who has been more than patient with my slacking.
Welcome Colonel!

" ... Marines were running the show." And this is a bad thing?
Welcome.
John - keep me and LTCOL P in check? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good one!
COL Hank - welcome aboard. I still view us as a Navy-Marine Corps blog...
I think it's funny that LtCol P and I certainly haven't been matching John and Charlie's post counts over the past few months, yet "Marines were running the show for the past year."
ah.. but you guys had the numbers!
