Bio
I love my family as much as my fraternity. If I need ANYTHING I know that I can come here and let loose and my warrior family will guide me in the right direction! My local VA made EVERYTHING in my life a mess and I have it back now!! For that I am Grateful!! I am a proud father of a 3 year old boy that means everything to me!! I am Blessed in so many ways today, I thank my God for that!!
Military Experiences
Apr 2002 - Sep 2006
Cannon Crew Member
My Marines and I prepared the Cannons for movement, combat and firing. As a Marine Cannon Crewman "Cannon Cocker" and a member of a field artillery howitzer battery, I prepared artillery pieces and equipment for movement through out the firing process. We inspected and prepared certain ammunition and the howitzer for firing. This includes laying for elevation and deflection, loading the piece, and handling the ammunition, Yes the Marine Corps let me hold, move and load 95 pound rounds a million times without destroying anything, well downrange is a different story!! I left Parris Island on 2002Jun6 with 1st Batallion C Co. as a Marine, Happiest day of my life!! OoRahh
