This is a question In the Army Now - The joy of the Armed Forces

I've never been a soldier. I was an air cadet once, but that mostly involved sitting in a mouldy hut learning about aeroplane engines with the hint that one day we might go flying.

Yet, anyone who has spent time defending their nation, or at least drinking bromide-laced-tea for their nation, must have stories to tell. Tell them now.

Secret Mission
I was sent on a secret mission -- part of a special medical team deployed when then President Reagan visited Bali, Indonesia (1986). Codename: Neurosurgical Team One. Arrive at our staging area, Subic Bay, Phillipines; where we're to board ship for Bali.

We have some free time, so the team ventures into the city. First thing we find is ballcaps specially embroidered "Neurosurgical Team One". Some secret, huh?

Yes, we all bought one.
