I
was born in Frankfurt, Germany on July 8, 1972.
A few years later we moved to Waco, Texas.
A
couple of years later we moved back to Europe.
From there we returned to the United States.
We
first lived in South Carolina. Next we moved
to Maryland, then West Virginia, then Virginia,
and
then back to West Virginia
where we've maintained our home for 11 years.
In
1992 I joined the Military.
I went to basic training for the United States
Navyin
Great lakes Illinois. From there,
I went to Meridian, Mississippi where I took
Class
"A" school for Ship Serviceman.
From there I went to my First command:
The
USS JASON AR-8 where I spent four years.
It was a repair ship in the early 1940's.
We
went on 2 WESTPAC's (WESTERN PACIFIC) cruises.
I went to the Persian Gulf twice. It was fun.
They
were probably
the most exciting years of my life.
