Michael's Story
Hello all....
Those who remember me probably best know me because I played on the football team at GHS, and that my dad was a faculty member.
In a nutshell here's what I've been up to since graduating in '81....
I went to school at App State though I didn't finish there. I enlisted n the Army to get the $ to finish school and finally got my B.A. from Central Washington University while stationed in Yakima, WA. Most of my military time was spent in the 101st Airborne at Ft. Campbell, KY, and I've been stationed in KY, GA, WA, and South Korea, with deployments to Panama, and the Middle East during Operation Desert Shield/Storm, and twice for Operation Iraqi Freedom...the most recent tour being 2005-2006. I'm currently stationed at Ft. Lewis, WA.....about 30 miles S of Seattle.
I had a 2 year break in service from 2000-2002 where I was a police officer in Garland, TX, outside ...Expand for more
of Dallas.
I've yet to be married and have no children.
I truly miss my family and friends in NC, and some of you may have even heard me on the John Boy & Billy show on the radio, who were introduced to me upon my return from Iraq in 2004.
I am so sorry to not have been to any of the reunions, as the military has kept me away from them, and would like to see you all again someday soon!
UPDATE
....Still stationed here in Washington state, and after 2 1/2 years of being involved in the creation of a new unit and subsequent training, my unit has received word that we will be deploying to Afghanistan in the July, 2008 timeframe. Before that I will be taking leave for the first two weeks in June, and will be visiting in Charlotte as well as some friends from my former unit at Ft. Campbell, who returned from Iraq a few months ago.
I hope to hear from some of y'all while I'm home!
