Michael's Story

In 1795, I walked from Incline to Reno, Las Vegas (to visit Jeff Roberts, when he started to work in Las Vegas). A day later, I then walked to Palm Springs and then Los Angeles. It took me two more days to get to Thousand Oaks (where visited an ex-Marine Corps DI, that was the Mechanical Engineering professor at Simi University. I went there to see his sprint cars (that he and his daughters were building in the garage. He was 5th generation race car builder/designer and driver and built cars and taught for a living.. I left his place and went up Santa Barbra's hwy 1and got stuck half way up to San Fransisco in Big Sur. caught a ride out of there and went thru Sacramento to Donner Lake and then home; where I was given my orders to show up at Ft. Meade MD, I was assigned to the 519th MP unit. I left the Lake and drove to Maryland; which took a month to get there. In the three years of that service, I was assigned to the MP's, Engineering, then a guinea pig for Natick Research Labs in Natick Massachusetts, medical. My overseas assignments was to the Green Berets Aviation outfit in Fairbanks. I was once given a cobra airlift to the Communications Command in Ft Richardson and then was assigned to the U.S.A.Communication Command Agency in Anchorage, Alaska. I was then finally left the service assigned at the Presidio in San ...Expand for more
Fransisco. I (ETS) left the ARMY and went to aircraft mechanics school (Northrop technical institute, in LA) and got my Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) license as well as my certification with the FCC as an avionics technician. I then (80's) went to work for the Army (civilian), Depot, in Sacramento, as a draftsman doing technical drawings on the multi-phasic radar systems, communication systems, (TeleCommunications Systems Design Section ) and got into the internet development and many missile system component designs. After spending about 10 years there, and another year in electronics school, I then got orders to go to North Dakota, where I was assigned to the 321 Missile Wing as Technical Draftsman to the technical support section and then (MSPTS MBLME) until the SALT treaty closed the Wing down. I was, then, assigned to the 319th Air Refueling Wing as its long ranger scheduler; where I bought refueling missions for the wing. I had the large 52 KC135''s (4 squadrons) to buy missions for. After 6 years of that, I retired out and tried to come back to the Lake; familiar territory. I was bitten by a spider and thus had a major stroke. Since then, and I've been in the hospital over 3 years... So much for a retirement. The VA now has me until (if) I can get my legs to work again. Other than this, not a hell of a lot to say;
