Bio 

When I returned Stateside in Dec 89 after leave from Panama; I was assigned the position of 11B/19D Team LDR in the OPFOR element's SCOUT PLT of the1/509th ABN, which were the Bad Guys for visiting units to the Center.

At the time I noticed that people treated me differently for some reason. My PLT SGT said, "Flagg you just came out of the jungle, so I knew you knew your shit."
