While spending 20 years in the Marine Corps, I went to many different Colleges. I retired from the Marine Corps as an Officer in Japan. Flew to California and setteled by becoming a full-time college student and working in various businesses. I completed my MBA and started my own business. I am enjoying it.

off. Leaving the tropical island of Japan for the Artic was not cool! I had never been more cold. I returned to North Carolina and then found myself on Sea Duty aboard the USS Nimitz. That was 6 months after I returned from Norway. Spent two years traveling Europe, North Africa, and the Carribean. Upon my return from there, I was sent to Southern Illinois as an Instructor at a Infantry Reserve Unit. Three years in one place. Left there for Wash, D.C. Was there 8 months and promoted to a Warrant Officer.
Went to school and was sent back to Camp Lejeune. From there I went to Southwest Asia. Upon returning from the war, I was sent to the Recruiting District in Philadelphia. I spent 9 months there and was sent to a Helo Squadron in California for deployment to Japan, Korea, and Thailand. Returned to California and rotated back for six months. Upon that return, we deployed to Somalia. I then retired.
