My name is John.

 

Been in the industry for awhile...off and on for the last 13 years.

 

Long before it was culturally sexy to be a cook. biggrin.gif

 

Just now re-embracing that aspect of my life after a 7 year stint in the Army as a line medic.

 

Here to learn a few new tricks and hope to network a little.

Its funny, me and the Army Cooks never really got along too well. VERY RARELY did they come out and do missions with us.

 

The recruiter BEGGED me to join up as a cook because of my background.

 

When I told him I wanted to be a line medic, he smiled real big and said: "Even better! Hang tight and I will print your contract up!".

I don't know much about the organisation of the US armed forces.  I do know a bit about our own - my Dad was an officer in the British army, and we lived around the globe, including quite a few hotspots.  The US services chefs on here seem very nice.
