The Man that is MoonLoaf

I am relatively new to the Wikipedia community, and I am still learning the ropes. I hope to eventually make many lasting contributions. I am a former US Army Sergeant and former paratrooper, having served for four years in 1st Battalion 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment in the 82nd Airborne Division. I am a veteran of both Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. I just got discharged in March 2008 and am adjusting back to civilian mode pretty well I think. I plan to start attending college this fall (on Uncle Sam's dime) to pursue a Journalism degree. I hope to eventually be a conflict/adventure journalist like Robert Young Pelton.

Gettin' My Jollies

In my spare time I enjoy playing paintball, videogames, reading, working out, skydiving, bar-hopping and constantly upgrading my PC, which eats up most of my money. I guess you could say I'm something of a PC hardware enthusist. I love travel, and I have been to 19 countries, thanks to all the free travel opportunities the military provides. I've seen most of Europe, some of South America and of course the Middle East. I hope to travel to Japan someday because I find their culture fascinating. I have decided to learn how to sail this summer, which should be interesting.

The Orgin of Moonloaf

The name MoonLoaf originates from my nickname in the Army, which was Moonloaf. I got the name during Airborne School. One evening in the barracks, after a hard day of training, I was joking around with my fellow trainees. I had just dropped my trousers and bent over to deliver a devastating bare-assed moon to a buddy of mine in response to a comment he had made regarding my dear mother. Just as the moon was at its peak, an instructor walked through the door and into the line of fire. The instructor, a grizzled Sergeant First Class by the name of Loaffe, received the full force of the moon. I paid for the error with three hours of additional PT that evening. From then on I was known as MoonLoaf to my fellow trainees, and when I arrived in my platoon I found that word of my deed had already spread and the nickname was waiting for me upon my arrival.
