Bio 

Enlisted as an open mechanics, placed into crew chief jet engine, active duty I worked on F-4E Phantoms at Moody, sent them out and they came back as F-4G Wild Weasels, reserves was at the 440th TAW working on C-130A's until they closed the base and sent them south. One of those crazy guys that run into burning buildings and a legal drug dealer. Manage to move up the ladder to become a Lt/Ff/Medic, got hurt put out to pasture before my time. This caused me to lose focus on life and allowed bad, bad memories to come out. Finally found my way through the Lord.
