Pink is for Reserves. Wendy is fully retired from 20 yrs active duty, joining Fleet Reserve. Bluish-grey is the order of the day!
And, retirement does NOT suck!
Congrats Wendy!!!!! Fair Winds and Following Seas, and best of luck in all you do!!

Thanks Jim!!! :hurray: And Thanks everyone! :party:
When I joined 20 yrs ago I joined the Navy Reserve as a TAR Baby! Now know as FTS - Full Time Support. So I have a pink retired ID card. :cheers:
Glad to be apart of the Retired ranks. But just started a new job as a contract aircraft mechanic working for the Navy. Hard to let go I guess!:D
But again Thanks, Luv the Squirrel Pics!
:squirrel:
EDIT: Still rate the Blue ID card so went and got the correct one!!! :party:
