Western Germany, Bundeswehr 1988-89 BWK Osnabrck...I started my basic training with a duodenal ulcer and was in severe pain when I arrived. I got hospitalised for more than three weeks on the next day  Basic training at NschAusbKp 17/I, Gellendorf Kaserne, Rheine (NschAusbKp = logistics training company) Afterwards PzGrenBtl 202, MatGrp, Blcher Kaserne, Hemer (MatGrp = logistics squad for the Panzergrenadier bataillon). The unit belonged to Panzerbrigade 20 which was part of the 7th Panzer Division. For the record, no harm in mentioning details here. Both units are disbanded by now and neither barracks exist anymore.

Thanks to all that served--in all countries SimHQ.  Wish I'd had the sense, I've thought many times how I might have been better off having done so.

Wish I'd had the sense, I've thought many times how I might have been better off having done so. Same here. I was really looking forward to joining the Navy after I graduated from college but the open heart surgery I had when I was 8 put an end to that!

I was on the verge of joining the Royal Marines before I went to college, had been told I was ok to join up but I went to college instead and sometimes kick myself for that.

US NAVY Airman Apprentice E-2 1997-1998 USS Kitty Hawk CV-63 Just one of many failures in my life, unfortunately. Still eats me up inside on a near daily basis.   Sorry for pic quality. Had to take photos of old photos.
I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.
