Default Who here served in the Military?
If so, what service, what was your primary MOS and when did you serve?

I was USMC, 0331 and served 1976-1980.

I was already out of school and in practice for about 5 years before I received my commission. There was a signing bonus and there was also some loan repayment. It didn't cover all of my loans, and it didn't cover a cent of the interest accumulated (which was substantial on 190,000 of principal).

What kind of responsibilities does a veterinarian have in the Army? Is it strictly official military or do you treat military members pets also?
