Bio
Prior to Military Service, I worked for Market Basket Grocery Store in Portsmouth, NH; After Service I was a Security Guard for 1st Security and Rockingham Security. I worked until 1995 at which time I fell ill with PTSD and was unable to work. I was homeless for almost a year and then granted VA Benefits for PTSD and Bipolar I Disorder and made 100% in 2001.
Security Guard for Rockingham Security and also for 1st Security as a roving security guard from Boston to Contoocook, NH for a few years. I did not work long as my diagnoses of Bipolara I and PTSD kicked in and I was dismissed from the job. I was homeless for awhile despite the fact that I found and achieved sobriety on 2. April 1995
