My younger brother of 6 years is in Active duty in the Air Force at UPT @ Columbus MS and now myself in the Army as a reservist. Lets just say the family get together will be fun now. Anyhow any of you had brother/sister or even parent serving while you were serving? Any experiences or stories?

My father is now retired, but he pinned my E5 in Afghanistan in 2007.
My sister is a captain, my little brother is a medically retired E5; the 3 of us met in salerno, Afghanistan thanks to Gen Allen and BG Martin Schweitzer.
My cousin Eric graduated OSUT at benning while I was there. My drill, DS Connell (now KIA) got me on his graduation detail and I have pictures with him and my family while I was still technically in basic. B 2-58.
My entire family is in really but those are my in service highlights.
