Home has always been and still is Rochester, NH. I left home in 1968 and joined the Marine Corps and after two tours in Vietnam, I returned to Rochester. After being accepted into the NH State Police, I traveled around the entire State of NH and had owned several homes, but I always came back to my roots, Rochester. Hell, after my parents passed away, I even purchased their house, which is the home that I grew up in, and turned it into my Office. I still own that house today. I do own a lake house in Milton, NH but I will always call Rochester my home.

My home town is Tacoma Wa. I reside in an area called Sage in unincorporated Riverside County Ca. It has a all-in-one general store/feed store/lunch counter/post office. Literally that is all, no stop lights either. Not even a 4 way stop, just a couple stop signs. It puts the "R" into Rural...lol Closest actual town is Hemet Ca. Last duty station was Cryptologic Readiness Group San Diego.

Oh My! Hard Question. When I joined I lived in Leawood, KS and When I retired I returned here and call Leawood my home but I'm a Sailor and a Gypsy, Son of Basically a Travelling Salesman (Executive but he moved a bit). I've made my Homes in St Louis, Lebanon, IL, Cincinnati, Orlando, Pensacola, Pearl Harbor, Adak, AK, Sugar Grove, WV. London, UK, Washington, DC and Bremerton, WA and consider all of them my Home. I retired Onboard USS Arkansas CGN-41 Bremerton, WA and still return to the Pacific Northwest, Seattle and Portland Metro's to spend time with my Grandchildren and Children. "Where I throw my Seabag is Home".

If I had to pick a hometown while I was in uniform, I always said, Tulsa, OK, because I grew up there and was commissioned at the University of Tulsa. I've lived Belleville, IL, now longer than anywhere else, so it's home. My last duty station was Scott AFB, IL (near Belleville).

SGT John " Mac " McConnell My father was a nomad, I went to 8 schools before graduating from high school. Since I entered the Army at the 'Mode of Day' building in Los Angeles, and returned after discharge, Los Angeles is now my "Home". I have worked for the city and resided w/in 40 miles of the city hall for 60 years, that counts.
