Everyone in the Army has several buddies. I remember all of mine, from the first day I entered active service, until the day I retired almost thirty years later. Unfortunately, too many of my Army buddies I was so close to have become distant memories. Some of that is my fault for not keeping in touch better, but most is due to having lost contact all together. Lesson learned for younger folks now serving. Keep those special bonds of military service which you are now experiencing, alive for as long as you can. If you don't, you'll regret it later in life.
