    Congrats!

    Honestly though, for this retired USAF 30474 Ground Radio veteran, I didn't know USAF MARS was still a "thing." It was dying a slow death when I retired in the mid-2000's.

    75 YEARS, WOW. I got into MARS in 1962 in Korea. It has been fun and a learning experience, 61 years.
    I now hold an emeritus call of AFZ5QD. 23 years active, Air Force.
