Are You Retired Military 2 Years, 3 Months ago

Bikers always seems to have a large veteran poplulation, but I seem to notice a very large retired military population here on the forum. Maybe cause most military folks are computer literate and we enjoy the comradre with folks with the same interest and passions.

Lets see how many retiree's we have?

Thank each of you for your service to our country.
