Here's how the ranking works:

0-99 = Member
100-499 = Active Member
500-999 = Veteran Member
1000-4999 = Super Veteran
5000+ = Premier Elite

Don't know how high it goes. Highest we've got is Zook at around 10,250. It may change again at 15,000 or 20,000, but I don't know.

I was a Super Vet, until I changed names, now I'm just a Vet, I believe.

My old man was in the navy during ww2. He was an electrition on a fuel tanker in the pasific. When I was a kid I never really thought much of it, "Aint like he was on a battleship" After we studied the war in jouior high history, and learned a lot more of the lagistics of war, I realized how brave a fella had to be to work on a tanker.
Fuel tanker = number one target.
I had one heck of an old man. Sure do miss him.

[crankybait]

super-vet stage goes on waay too long imo

[pignjig]

1/4 Stick- Well said, man. Good on ya. My grandpa was a seabee and helped cut airstrips in the New Guinea jungle. I never realized how dangerous that was, either, until I got a lot older. I wish I'd taken the time to talk with him more about it.

Bama- Also, well said. Everything we have in this country has come at the sacrifice of a citizen soldier. There's no way we could ever re-pay our vets.

[MrPhotographer06]

well i had thought about the military before thinking of the marines.. but i dropped it then my dad said something about the navy and their career choices.. MC carrer is a photographer! and according to their online test i full lots of the categories in their list of carrers

[BassAddict]

My grandpa is a WWII Submarine Vet. It would take me several days to tell all the wild stories of what he went threw in the war. My dad was on a Destroyer in Vietnam. I didn't go that route. I was in the Air National Guard for 14 years and was a Weather Forecaster. I briefed pilots, Generals, Full Birds, ect... before a mission or flight. Could get real crazy on a bad weather day! Of course... weather guys are ALWAYS wrong!!!

[MrPhotographer06]

i've also thought of being a carrier weather forcaster
