Our youngest daughter, with a double major from Stanford, enlisted in the Army 7 1/2 years ago. Went to PsyOps training, jump school (5th paratrooper in our family), Arabic language school, and did two tours in Afghanistan. She decided to leave the Army this August, and is currently going to the U of MN for her Master"s Degree in Business. Got married a few years ago (to the 6th paratrooper) whose career paralleled hers in regard to training and assignments. After tours in Qatar and Afghanistan, he left earlier, and is in his second year of his Master"s program in Urban Planning.
Both were assigned to Special Ops at Ft. Bragg, NC, and while she was waiting for Arabic classes to start, they were often assigned to act as "civilians" at Camp Mackall, where the Special Forces officers are trained. Wore her JD cap one day, and the training sgt, noticing her hat, asked if she could drive a JD loader tractor, to move some dirt in the area. "Of course!". Later he had her teaching guys how to back up trailers in the training area!
Over the years I"ve made mention of her here, and forwarded to her all of the nice responses you"ve posted. She was very appreciative of your support. I thank all of you for that....

I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
