Bang, bang! I am the warrior

Jeff Quinton is looking to map out bloggers who've served in the US Armed Forces. That's any of the big five plus reserves, guards, etc. Montana militias need not apply. See his post for details.

For myself, I was US Navy Reserve from 1987 to 1995. About a quarter of it was in activated status (Desert Shield/Storm) and I was an Operating Room Technician, Hospital Corpsman attached to a mobile Fleet Hospital unit (like M*A*S*H but with hotter nurses).

POINTS: Name the group that made the lyric above a pop hit for 2 points. Name the lead singer of the group for a bonus point. No searching, y'all!

1 It was a bad 80's chick. GF would know in a heart-beat. I can hear the stupid song in my head, but I don't know who it was...

2 It was Scandal, and the singer was hot!

3 I didn't see the second part. Her name was Patty Smythe

4 Damn. Late again on the point search. But thanks for the ear worm!

5 "Shootin at the walls of heartache. Bang, bang!" Matt's got it. Patty Smythe, playing the part of the uber punk/pop chick sporting a mock mohawk and decked out in leather has remained in my fantasy girl pool for nigh on two decades. 3 points for Matt!

6 "bloggers who've served in the US Armed Forces"? I cannot recall a song that contained that line, but then my CD collection only contains the soundtrack for Kangaroo Jack

7 Incidentally, she's aged nicely too.

8 Awwww, now I'm pissed. I was thinking Patty Smyth, I swear, but it just didn'take sense and I didn't want to embarrass myself...
