Zak Sparrow:
I thought I would start this and inquire as to how many veterans there are on this forum? I have met several while visiting the phils and know the veteran community in the phils faces a unique set of circumstances living there. I would be interested in sharing these experiences, if anyone else is? looking forward to your replies.

USMC from 82-89 - peacetime Marine here.

I did spend 4 years in Iraq an Afghanistan as a civilian contractor working with Army HQ units dealing with knowledge management from an IT perspective.

Art, just a re(tired) Fil-Am:
I'm retired USAFR and Civil Service combined. I had 12 yrs active duty and 18 yrs Reserves/Civil Service time, which combined gave me a total of 30 yrs service 1967 - 1997 under the Air Reserve Technician Program (ART) under the Civil Service Commission. 
I've been stationed all over the place stateside and overseas as a C-141 & C-5 aircraft cargo jet mechanic. My longest place stateside I was stationed at was at Travis AFB, Ca for 18 yrs, Luke AFB, Az 4 yrs and overseas at Clark AB 4 yrs and U-Tapao AB Thailand 2 yrs.
As a Reservist I did short duty tours (TDYs) of 2 weeks in Alaska, Washington State, Texas, S. Korea, Guam, Hawaii, Philippines, Thailand, Japan and Okinawa.   
I've been married to a Filipina for 28 yrs now and we have retired and lived in the Philippines NCR of Luzon going on 18 yrs.
