    I agree, it would be nice. Perhaps even putting on the left hand side of the screen instead of in the sig?

    Hope to atleast get up to Sgt. Corporal during my future 30-year army career. It starts in 4 years. EOD should be fun.
    BTW, does anyone know of the army's current retirement plans for long careers like 20 or 30 years?

    WTF is a Sgt.Corporal?

    Is that anything like a corporal captian from MASH?

    PS: If you're a good troop you should hit Specialist(similar to corporal) within 2-3 years.

    If you're interested in learning about US Military retirement packages, ask Diceman on my site(on the message boards). He just retired from the USAF as an E-7 with over 20 years of service.

    Spent 14 years working with the military. First 4 years in the Army. Figured I'd make some real money by doing contract work the rest of the time. Now I have started my own business. Support our troops.

    Go Blues!

    I'm a former US Army infantryman. 1986-90, and briefly again in 91.

    I was every rank from E-1 through E-4 twice.

    Military Rank

    Master Chief (E-9) Served 23 years, 18 at sea and five on shore duty. Loved every minute of it, 20/20 hind sight, should have stayed 30!
