Two-parter here. Today is not only Flag Day in the US, but it is also the 235th anniversary of the establishment of the US Army by the Continental Congress in 1775.

Admittedly, I'm getting a late start on it, but rather than doing a banner using some online art, I'd like to ask that any TMPer who served in the US Army to please send me a photo of themselves taken while they were in service and I'll put them together in a collage. I might not be able to get it together in time for today, but it'll be ready to go for next year. I'll try to get things together a bit more in advance for USAF, USCG, USMC & USN. And, as TMP is international, please let me know if your nation similarly honors it's military and I'll try to get things going that way.

Thanks!

Hoo-ah! Sergeant, combat engineers, 1991-1997. I have a pic on my profile page you can lift for your collage.

Thank you, thank you very much. Field Artillery, 1971-1975. Son of a career Air Force type, all my brothers served as well. To all still in uniform, thank you. To all who have perished in service to their country, there are not words enough.

Psyop Specialist 1992-2000.

Infantryman 2006-present.

My profile pic should suffice. Maybe cast a wider net for Veteran's Day? There's time yet.

Thanks for rejembering. I'm an ex-redleg (nco) like my father (Combat Engineers) I had a phobia about having my picture taken. I have none.

Grandson, son, brother, husband and father of Soldiers. Spent a tiny bit of time as one myself. Still work for the Army as a contractor and still reserve status.
