    I was fortunate to never have to do an NTC or JRTC rotation. I was actually stationed at Ft Polk, but had nothing to do with JRTC.

    Lucky you.. How the hell did you pull that off (non rotation in the box) at Ft. Polk? Will say this, The only place you can take a shower in your own sweat to clean up (exaggeration, but damn near true). that humidity down there is no joke.

    :rofl::rofl:

    So I was in charge of the Intel field office there- HQ was out of Ft. Meade so not much oversight, and no requirements to JRTC. We lived there for four years and do not miss the heat or humidity one little bit!

    Any of you guys have a SWR meter for a GMRS radio? Apparently SWRs for CB radios won't work.

    Alright fellas, I’m probably going to have to replace my UCAs. I have OEM, and rarely do any type of off roading. What’s a good replacement that won’t break the bank?

    I don't abide by the "buy once cry once" motto. Think I'm on the 16th or 17th set of tires and the truck only has 74,000 miles...

    Don't even want to think of how many different suspensions I've had.

    Yeah I just got a quote to do the passengers side, and it was almost $800. I don’t have any air tools, but there’s no way I’m paying that much.
