Combat arms is not a thing anymore. Additionally, the Chinook is not used exclusively in "service support" applications. That is simply one of the roles it performs.
You. are. the. coolest.
Because you just kept me from looking like an idiot by posting the "percentage that branched combat arms" on our FB wall. Not only that, but I figured out all the acronyms on this list. Woo hoo and THANK YOUUUUUU!
