Holllie Greene Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Alex, Congratulations to you for winning the claim for your Veteran!!! I remember those jet-gun inoculations when I was in Basic in 1980...I will always remember what the person who performed the inoculation said, "just relax your arm honey", Anyway, MEGA-CONGRATULATIONS!!!

HadIt.com Elder GBArmy Posted August 30, 2019 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted August 30, 2019 Yup; I remember a guy a few ahead of me let out a yell and I turned and saw blood running down his arm pretty good. There was a guy in my unit and I remember the look on his face. Man, he didn't want any part of that shot. And I heard the guy with the jet-gun saying to no one in particular " I keep telling you jerks not to move." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
