The Travels of a Soldier Buckeye Fan

Buckeye fever knows no boundary, country, state or nation. Nowhere is that more evident than what we as Soldiers see everyday around the world. How do I know? 20 years of experience.

?You can?t swing a dead cat without hitting one of you Ohio State guys,? said Lt. Col. Randy Duke, a self proclaimed Tennessee fan as I hung my Ohio State banner on the wall. ?You guys are everywhere. It?s like a plague.?

In one respect, I guess he?s right. Buckeye fever spreads like wildfire, and it is most definitely contagious.

At the end of this month I will have been in the Army 20 years, and from Panama to Sarajevo, Somalia to Seoul -- throughout my travels to 49 countries -- the one constant (besides my family to come home to) has been -- Buckeye fans.

Cont'd ...
