Enlisted in 1984 into the Air Force as an Instrumentation Mechanic 31653.

o Bosnia and was the first Attack aircraft in theater in 24 Dec, 1995. I then was assigned to Ft Knox Kentucky in a Congressionally mandated assignment working with the Reserves supporting/evaluating all Army Aviation units in the 1st Army. I was lucky enough to fly with the 8/229th Apache Attack Battalion. After this assignment I was further assigned to Ft Rucker and the Maintenance Test Pilot Course as an Apache Longbow Maintenance Examiner/Instructor Pilot for five years. It was at the end of the second year that my neck went out and I had to have two surgeries to fix it. I got back on flight status 11.5 months later but after 5 months of flying in pain I had to retire as a CW4. So I got a Government Job at Redstone Arsenal supporting the Soldiers of the Best Army in the World and have put down roots here in Madison Alabama. NOW FULLY RETIRED/Disabled.
