Default greetings

My name is Matthew and I am a marine corps veteran. i served honorably from Aug. 12th 1980-June 22 1988 as a 1371 combat engineer. I made Sergeant in 1987 and was a corporal forever. I just found this site and hope I can find some info on my years in that I can't seem to remember. I am 100% service connected for multiple sclerosis.()

Welcome Mathew. I hope you find that you are in good company here. I am an FNG myself, but I already feel like part of the gang.

Semper Fi Marine,
I served a little earlier then you but as you know, time and distance changes nothing, we're still brothers forever.
I believe you're in a good house here and I'm sure before too long you'll feel right at home.
I too am a Corporal forever and a grunt to boot !
Welcome to the site.
Scott
