I think I just remembered how to do it.
Go the the upper left part of this page which says "User CP with a guy on the left to it" and click on it.
I was in the first desert storm and after that for 9 total tours in the middle east.
Thank you Arlin I found it and was able to post my links.
WOW! 10 tours of duty thanks again for your service and helping keeping this great nation FREE!!!
