Bio

Now in retirement. My drive for "Perfect is good enough" from 2/505, finely got me in trouble with the management. You cant push people like we were, growing up, these politically correct days. My Dad was a retired WWII LTC - Air Force C47 pilot. He expected the same. Now, its just how I am. Okay, maybe slightly excessive in some cases. But our society's lack of integrity, honesty, work ethic..

Military Experiences

Mar 1983 - May 1987

Ammo barer - Co's Driver - Asst.Gunner - Gunner - Section Sgt.

B Co, 2nd BN, 505th PIR, 82nd ABN | Fort Liberty, NC

11 C - Indirect Fireman / mortar magot. Drafted as the Co's driver for a while. It was educational from the organizational point, but really missed the line-dogs. Ran with them in off times. But I think the CO got a kick from the stories about what we did with off duty time. And never once did he use it against us. But that was the kind of guy Cpt B was. HQ plt. had a tendency to be.. uh... soft? Not all, by any means. During my time I experienced both extremes from LT's and CO's.
