Jack Olney:  

I live in Fort Mill, SC and together with my wife, Sheila, have 2 pretty amazing kids. Zach is 16, in the band, has a great attitude, plays everything, and is totally on the right track. Liz is 11 (thinks she is 30)has an independent streak a mile wide, is right about everything, and needs very little guidance. My wife Sheila, is the most beautiful, compassionate, hard working, down to earth woman I have ever known. We love grilling out with friends, walks together, and taking day trip adventures. Things are pretty damn good here. Family History I joined the Navy (8 yrs total) shortly after High School and immediately began a 4.5 year sea going adventure on the USS America (CV-66). I was onboard the America in the Persian Gulf (Operation Desert Sheild) when Zach was born. I met him when he was 2.5 months old on June 6th, 1992. Liz came along while we were on "Shore Duty" at NAS Oceana in August of 1996. During our time in the Navy, Sheila attended and graduated from college with a degree in Nursing. Things were a little tight and vacations were non-existent. We infrequently had enough to "splurge" on a six pack of Lite and some Pace salsa. Times were tough and sometimes it was hard being married, young and broke with so much responsibility. Often we made the best of it though, and could be found on the beach, riding our bikes, or watching TV "all day" while laying on the pull out sofa. Navy Stuff During my Navy time, I visited: England - Portsmouth, Catebury & London Spain - Malage, Mallorca France - Marseille(2x) Italy - Naples(2x), Trieste(3x) Greece - Athens, Crete, Corfu Turkey - Antalya Israel - Haifa(2x) United Arab Emirates - Dubai(2x), Abu-Dhabi Virgin Islands...Expand for more
