Bio

I enlisted at just shy of 18 in 1975. I retired in 1995 at 38 and have since retired from all work in 2023. I am married now for almost 39 years and have 3 grown sons. My wife is retiring in 2025 at which time we will be traveling around the country with cousins, going from state to state to see this great country of ours!
