Hello, 91-01 US Navy, Fed service since and a year to go until I’m done. Groton, CT Charleston, SC Guam/Japan Fallon, NV

Heck yeah! Same here. What area are you in the Fed? I am in the Panhandle of Florida...fed service. Unfortunately, I have 8 years and some change before I can hang it up.

For a guy not from the US: what is fed service?

Fed service is short for federal employees, so federal employee service. We sometimes say; he or she is a 'fed', as a slang term. There are many US federal service jobs under the federal umbrella of government careers. As a veteran, in the US, these jobs are supposed to be a benefit for us. However, a person who never served on active duty in the armed forces can also become a government employee...' a fed'.

Thank you to everyone who served! I retired from the US Army in 2018, after 30.5 years of service, as an SFC/E-7. I held 7 MOSs, and a few ASIs and SQIs. A couple of my other Army certifications: Modern Army Combatives Program instructor, Army Master Fitness Trainer. I am a 100% disabled veteran, but stay in shape and continue to train; I’m a highly functional “disabled” guy. Professor William Murphy, my coach/instructor and good friend, ensures I don’t get stupid on the mat and break my old self (turning 60 in September). This makes my wife very happy. The attached photo is pretty old - me teaching combatives to an Army National Guard air defense artillery unit.

Thank you for your service as well. You are an inspiration.

Thank You to all who have served in the past and present. (Yes I know Memorial Day is tomorrow)

To all our brothers and sisters out here that posted in this thread. If you or someone you know of is a veteran in need of help, please let me know or not, but please check out SOF Missions. This is a great non-profit that is there to help veterans. They have some of the best support that I have seen in veterans groups. https://sofmissions.org/help/ Full disclosure, my wife just started working there. She took the position not based on income but the mission of the group.

Thank you for the share!

Active Duty Air Force, 2001-current. I work aircraft armament on A-10's, but I'll be changing air frames here in a few months when I leave Korea.

I'm at Bragg right now training at Cornerstone. Not my home gym though

I've never been to ROC. I train BJJ 5 hrs a day so they can't meet my needs. I trained at ZR in Spring Lake & HM(Was Rafael's) until they slashed the roof of my car & Diego Ramalho refused to check the cameras, a bunch of sexual remarks were made, constant harassment from Gabriel, Sousa & they asked me about my genitalia. I train at Cornerstone & at my home with some friends now.

As of last Wednesday the Irish military has its first serving member to reach Bjj black belt …I think I’m the first anyway, although we do have ex-military who have gone on to achieve their Bjj black belts after leaving. Ex Irish Army infantry/artillery currently serving in the Irish navy diving/engine room
