Christopher's Story
Life
Where do I begin, as you can see by my profile I joined the US Navy and have been serving now for 14 years. I have 6 more to retirement. I have lived in Florida this whole time with my wife and 2 boys, except for a year that I had to serve overseas in a place called Souda Bay Crete, Greece. I have worked with F-18, H-60 aircraft in that time and am now serving on board the USS John F. Kennedy aircraft carrier. We just returned from a 6 month deployment serving our time in the Gulf fighting for Operation Enduring Freedom. Now we are in our stand down period and waiting to see what happens next. I have been just about all over the European Countries. There are only a couple that I have not been to yet and hope to get to them the next time I go over there. I will have to make 1 more deployment over there before I move on to my last duty station. I look forward to seeing everyone again in the near future. God Bless America.
Military
Since joining the Navy, I have been ...Expand for more
on 7 different Aircraft Carriers and been to the Med 5 times. I have severd in squadrons and been stationed in Greece. I would love to go back there and visit some more places. Name a country in the Med and I have probably been there more than once. The good thing is each time we went back it has always been to a different part. I have been to England and Ireland and would really like to go back to both of those places again. I have met some really interesting people from all over the world and have worked with some that I wouldn't mind working with again and some, well you know.
Well I have since retired from the US Navy and have moved back up to Terre Haute and work at AET. My oldest son is now 17 and attending TH North as a Junior. My youngest is an 8th grader at Otter Creek. I am enjoying my Navy retirement and looking forward to having both my boys out of the house soon. If you are still in Terre Haute and want to talk or get together I am listed in the phone book.
