Lynn's Story
Life Story
Email me at LynnDAlsup at AOL.com. After high school some of you know that I went into the U.S. Marine Corps. I served four years mostly working with electronics. I was in electronics school for a year in San Diego, became a radio tech/repairman, then a cryptographic technician, followed by about two years of working with intrusion detection and electronic warfare mostly at Camp LeJeune, N.C. I was lucky since this specialty was exactly what I had hoped to get. I spent my final year in paradise stationed at Kaneohe Bay MCAS, on the Windward Side of Oahu in Hawaii.
In August of '72 I was released from the Marines and went to Columbia to attend Mizzou. While there I met and married my wife, Barbara Hulsey from St Louis (Affton area). We met and were married in 1974.
I graduated in '76 in Electrical Engineering and we moved to Kansas City where I went to work for Black & Veatch Consulting Engineers. In this job I was able to do what I love most and that is travel a lot. I made a couple of trips to Saudi Arabia of about a month each in late winter of both 1981 and 82.
In late 1983 I went to work for Allied-S...Expand for more
ignal Aerospace Corp (formerly Bendix) building nuclear weapons for the DOD/DOE. In 1992 I began my current job (and what was to become my final job) as a Project Manager, Team Leader, and then Supervisor for the General Services Administration, all still here in K.C.
Our daughter, Rachael Lynne, was born in 1987 and graduated from Lee's Summit H.S. in 2005. That means college tuition began that fall!! (She did not even consider attending k.u. !!) She graduated with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree (PharmD) in May of 2011 and began work as a Clinical Pharmacist in a hospital in the St. Louis area.
While in the Marines my different assignments allowed me to travel quite a bit as did several of my jobs after graduating from college. I enjoy visiting new places and seeing new things, as well as trying new and exotic ethnic food around the world. To me, travel is one of the greatest things in life, and the benefits are tremendous.
Barbara retired in May of 2006 and I retired in July of 2007. "Everyday is Saturday!!!"
