Bio
For the first 16 years of my career, I was a Combat Engineer. I jumped from planes and helicopters, and blew things up with the infantry. Then for the last 8 years, I was a Human Intelligence Collector (aka Interrogator). Would not trade any of my units or assignments for anything in the world.
