Yeah, it takes 6 admins to put 1 marine grunt in the field. But every1 in the Corps is a rifleman. Did DesertShield/Storm/OpRestoreHope as M249 gunner and was a Fire Team Leader. Did Panama as FAST Co. 6th Platoon out of Norfolk(Fleet Anti-terrorist Security Team). Did L.A. Riots and the Virginia Beach Riots a few years before that.

Hallo
I served as conscript in Czech army in 1998/99 (one year). Since 2004 I am in active reserve as squad leader.
I was originally trained for mechanised squad but now I am in pure infantry unit with sentry duties.

I've spent 10 months in the French air force in 1998, in the time we still had conscript.
But I was detached in the French Civil Aviation University programming software, so not a very "military" role.
