It is rumored at the time of his retirement, retired Major General Rees, Adjutant General of the Oregon Guard had served almost 48 years of active duty. From 1966 to early 2014. I was shocked and amazed to serve under such a man. Does anyone know who the next longest serving SM is behind General Rees? He had a long and very distinguished career. If you have a minute, sit and read his Bio.

He was forced to retire at 80....but his hard-nosed approach to nuclear safety is one of the reasons the U.S. Navy has never had a nuclear accident - unlike the army and airforce nuclear programs

That is one heck of a bio and that is a long time to serve. What does one do after 48 Years of military service?

Hopefully take some time off and spend some hard earned money. What a retirement check that must be.
