Soldier pics and Kids serving in the Military - 06/30/09 04:45 AM
After seeing the post the proud father of the new US Air Force Airman he had in his family, I thought it would be a great thing to honor our kids serving in the Military. Here is my son serving in the US Navy.

Here's my son, Seaman Appentice Schwind. No, that's not the Pacific in the background. It's Lake Ray Roberts. Mom made him do family pics in uniform. He loves the Navy, but misses Texas, especially when hunting season rolls around.
Here he is standing starboard on his ship the USS Dubuque ported in San Diego.

Re: Show us your Kids serving in the Military - 08/18/09 12:07 AM
Hey Warthog, He seems to be enjoying himself up at Sheppard. He is learning a lot about F16s. I've been building the F16s for about 30 years at Lockeed here in Fort Worth, so I'm kind of proud that he gets to maintain them. I'm on the F35 program now, so eventually he will probably be on them when they phase out the F16. If you talk to him tell him is ole man said hey.

Yes Sir, I can remember when I myself was a young Seaman Apprentice. It was the begining of a pretty amazing journey. Can't believe it was almost 13 years ago. Man time flys. I thank your son for his courage and service. These are pretty tough times to be in the military (for those serving as well as for their families). Our thoughts and prayers are with them.

If you are asking about his facial hair... you will never get any. I think he can grow three hairs on his chin.
If you mean what he did with his weapon... PM me. Danny, VaWaterfowler, and I have known each other since they day we reported to Basic Combat Training and have been in the same unit ever since.

Words cannot begin to describe the envy I have towards all of your Service. I tried to get in during the Reagan Admin. Cut backs and such would not allow me to get into Flight School, even though I was already accepted into OCS.
Lastly, I cannot express the gratitude I have for the U.S. Armed Forces....you truly are the Cornerstones of this country's foundation. I love you all like brothers and wish you all God's Guidance.

I went across the pond in 2004 so our rules of engagement(ROE) were alot less strict then they are now so needless to say we did alot of damage. The first pic is right after my vehicle was hit with a IED that was made out of two 155mm artillary shells. The second pic is of me and my M14. Loved that rifle...deadly accurate. The third pic is of me and my best friend that was killed Sept. 13 2004 by and IED he stepped on. RIP SSG. Guy Hagy The last pic is of my son that is named after him "Gage Hagy McAlister"

I freaking hate those spiders. We used to catch them and throw them in a tank with the scorpions and watch the scorpions tear them apart.

Re: Soldiers post your pics - 10/23/11 09:19 AM
I cannot believe I've not noticed this thread before. I want so much to thank all of you have have served, from the bottom of my heart - THANK YOU!
I called my Mom on 9/11. I wanted to join right then. But at the time I was outside the age limit (38). Also she reminded me I had a family to support and a 2nd son on the way. I told my mom that things had changed and we were going to be into this for a long time. She didn't think so.
Ten years later my family members have served 6 tours:
My younger brother a Texas Army National Gaurd Combat Engineer was the Company Commander of Alpha Company 386th EN BN at FOB Caldwell Iraq (2004-2005) - he brought his entire company home safe, my nephew Tennesee Army National Guard - 3 tours doing convoy duty in Iraq, and my cousin did 2 tours in Iraq with the Marines (loaded ordnance on F/18s). While I may not have served, my family has and continues to do so.
I think my Mom knows now what I meant 10 years ago, especially with my oldest son now 17 and thinking of following his Uncle into the Army.

I went to Iraq late 08 through mid 09 with B Trp 3/124 Cav doing convoy escort. Was a driver primarily, but also got some time in the turret of our ASV. I also drove/gunned a 1151 occasionally, but the ASV was my baby. If I one the lottery today I'd find a way to buy it back.
This was my usual crew, left to right, Sgt. Frye, Pfc Grey, and Sgt Womble. Pfc Grey was a fellow mechanic that just wanted to be out on the road with us. I'll never forget the times we had.
I snapped this photo on a return trip back to Adder/Tallil, honestly it was one of the few "beautiful" moments over there. I hope to remember that moment for the rest of my life.
Just wanted to give a special thanks to SapperTitan. Without guys like him doing his job, we may not have succeeded at our mission. Route clearance did a wonderful job over there making the roads safer for us. Thank you brother.

Just got back a few months ago, trying to get settled in here in Texas again, but a few shots from Ghazni Afghanistan.
On the way somewhere in the snow.
Sunrise
Spring dust storm in Afghanistan.
On a range with an AK
Traditional Afghan meal
Farming Village
Afghan Flea Market
We had a semi-traditional Thanksgiving dinner... these were our "Turkeys"... more like Turkey vultures but some guys got them cooked anyways.

Seen a lot of Turkey's in Uruzgan province but they didnt look too healthy and I ain't tryin to get bird flu LOL

Re: Soldiers post your pics - 08/19/12 02:02 PM
Yeah the Turkeys were sad, we had goats and lambs brought in at other times and butchered them and grilled. DFAC food gets boring after about a week so we ate more with the locals I think than there.

Here is my son, Daniel, who is a Sergeant in the Marine Corps (he followed my footsteps as I am a retired Marine). He is in the reserves here in Fort Worth and going to school full time after having served six years active duty.
Here is my younger son, Mark, who is a medic in the Army and deploying to Afghanistan for his first time tomorrow (Monday). Mama is NOT happy about that.
This is a couple of pics taken when they were young kids wearing one of my camie covers (hat).
Here are both of them during this last Christmas when Mark was home on leave. I've very proud of both my sons.

We did 12 mile ruck march, bridge recon, breached an obstacle, land navigation, and at the end we did this 11 row obstacle. My squad built the 11 row in 32 min to standard. Only 3 teams finished the 11 row in the allotted time and we were the only team to break into 30 min. Very proud of this squad and all their hard work.

UPDATE:
The boy graduates bootcamp next Friday (11/15). We will be leaving for Chicago on the 14th to see it. This time, I get to see what it looks like, because when you are in the graduation, you don't get to see anything.
He is Navy EOD, so he has BUDS prep for 3 more weeks in Great Lakes, and then heads to Florida for something like 38 weeks.
We are very proud and he is so ready to get out of bootcamp, so should be a good visit.
The Boy (Daxxon) at MEPS after signing up in the Delayed Entry Program. Ships out next June, will be US Navy, EM (if he doesn't get accepted to EOD)
And here is 3 generations of NAVY - Me, the boy, and his pawpaw

For my son, there isn't to many job prospects after the Army for chasing IEDs. Plus each MOS(correct me) only has so many of each rank assigned to that MOS and if there are no positions left, you find somewhere else to go or get out.
Why is everyone leaving the Engineers? I guess its still the dregs of the military. I couldn't wait to get out of the engineers too even though I was combat heavy.

Never good when you go over a wall and all you see is the sky
Sometime you just gotta take a break
Spent a lot of nights huddled around this fire talking about the days events with buddies.
Sometime you gotta take a selfie while the Taliban are ambushing Afghan Army and the tanker trucks they are escorting.
Found a big IED down in this swampy area tunneled under the road.
After we got the explosives out of the tunnel we blew the explosives up it was about 200lbs worth and this is what the area above in the previous picture looked like after we blew it.

The 2nd pic is of my old Barber (Henry) that is a WWII vet giving my son a free hair cut before deployment.
Old Henry cut hair in Irving, TX for over 40 years, he was in the 2nd wave at Normandy beach on D-Day, walked thru France & Germany, got caught in the Bulge & lived. A true American Hero, that rarely ever talked about his war time experience.

My son Wyatt just took his E5 exam and will know if he passed around thanksgiving. Sorry about the pictures below, first picture is of him receiving the Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist badge/pin (ESWS). The second picture he received the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal.
The Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist insignia also known as the ESWS pin, is authorized for wear by any enlisted member of the United States Navy who is permanently stationed aboard a navy afloat command and completes the enlisted surface warfare qualification program and personal qualification standards (PQS).
The Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal is awarded to members of the Armed Forces, including members of Reserve components on active or inactive duty, of the grade of lieutenant commander/major and below. The award shall be presented for meritorious service or achievement in combat or non-combat circumstances based on sustained performance or specific achievement of a superlative nature, and shall be of such merit as to warrant more recognition than is possible by a fitness report or performance evaluation, but which is not significant enough to justify a Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal or higher.
Professional achievement that merit the NA must:
(a) Clearly exceed that which is normally required or expected, considering the individual's grade or rate, training, and experience, and
(b) Be an important contribution of benefit to the United States and the Naval Service.
Leadership Achievement that merit the NA must:
(a) Be noteworthy
(b) Be sustained so as to demonstrate a high state of development or, if for a specific achievement, be of such merit as to earn singular recognition for the act, and
(c) Reflect most creditably on the efforts of the individual toward the accomplishment of the unit mission.

Wyatt received his promotion to PO2 back in November, got a couple of Tattoos also, imagine that a Sailor with Tats.
He has less than 1 year left in Sasebo, Japan. He said he has 3 looks to choose from? they told him if he stays another year in Sasebo they will give him a big bonus, extra 30 day leave and allow him to take his E6 or PO 1st class, if he chooses another base he will have to wait two years before he can take the E6 test. He likes it there but really wants to go to the a Navy base in Cherry Point, NC and work with the Marines in some sort of special training they do there.
Roughing it in Guam.

I’ve been on the ground in contact when an A10 did a low pass and the enemy disappeared. They literally seen the plane and left lol. They didn’t want what was coming if they stuck around.

What a difference 4 1/2 years make. Wyatt is stationed in Bahrain now and will be there another 15 months.
When my son went into the Navy no Tats and weighed around 165.lbs and did not cuss very much
Now he weighs 186.lb, plenty of Tats and his use of the English language has changed a lot
6/23/2017 with girlfriend Aimee
Not sure on date but recent and yes still with Aimee

It is a shame that so many of everyones previous pictures are missing I guess because of PhotoBucket related?Our son Wyatt requested and will hopefully get leave in June and we will get to see him a little when he is not shacked up with his girlfriend
I think he has 13 more months in Bahrain then he gets to come home
Wyatt and some friends were on the island grilling burgers, no pics of them.
My last post I stated Wyatt weighed 186lb. he actually weighs 196lb. now.
The picture of him in the White pants were his old clothes from almost 5 years ago when he was in Boot Camp, he was a little thinner then.
Obviously showing off a little.
Now in his current uniform.

Short story long (as usual)
Originally Wyatt was going to Charleston, SC for 18 months for Nuclear Engineering training, halfway through boot camp he switched to Advanced Electronics.
When he came back stateside from Sasebo, Japan he went through a 3 month training on internet maintenance and that is what he is doing now in Bahrain.
He said that at his location in Bahrain, it is the backup for the military's internet service for Europe that is handled from a base in Italy.
That is a great picture of Blanks grand-daughter with the American flag by the A-10.

After reading Stub's posts I noticed the one of my son is gone, so I'll post it again. This was a demo jump when he was stationed in Kodiak, AK (he's the one headed for the water).
