Michael's Story
Life:
Military Service:
U.S. Army - Feb. 1975 - Oct. 1981
Fort Bragg, N.C.
82nd Airborne Division, 119th Assault Helicopter Co., 129th Assault
Helicopter Co., 82nd Assault Helicopter Bn. While assigned to the 82nd, I was on "Jump Status" as a paratrooper and made over 70 jumps out of C-130's, C-141's, and helicopters.
U.S. Navy - Aug. 1982 - Nov. 1995
HM-14 NAS Norfolk, Va., NCSC Panama City, Fla., HM-12 Nas Norfolk, Va., VP-5 NAS Jacksonville, Fla. HM-14 is a Helicopter Mine Counter Meassure Squdron. Our job was to tow different types of mine clearing or mine spotting equipment out the back of our helicopter. I was an in-flight crew chief.
Director & Co-founder of Wolfpack Rescue & Sanctuary since 1996, a "No-Kill" organization which is dedicated to the rescue of injured or abused wolves and wolfdogs. We had 40+ wolves at our sanctuary at one time.
Worked as a Field Training Officer and shift supervisor for the security department at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nv Nov 98-Mar 06. Enjoyed the work as it gave me experience in law enforcement (made several felony arrest wi...Expand for more
th convictions), as well as being given an award for saving a life.
Moved to Cookeville, Tenn Sept 2007.
Joined a paranormal organization (Middle Tennessee Paranormal Society)and was the historical reseacher for the group. Quit the group after 6 months...found out that it was more talk than action and only the "chosen" few were allowed to go to any of the reported haunted places.
Placed all but 6 of our wolves with other rescue organizations prior to moving to Tennessee, which we will always have with us. Running one of the largest wolf rescues on the west coast for 8 years got to be to much for us to handle by ourselves.
We celebrated our 31st anniversary this past October 28th, 2008. Can't say it was the greatest day in 31 years because my wife broke her upper arm in 2 places on October 27th.
Looking into moving back to Florida sometime around Sept 2009 and settling down (at least for a couple of years). We consider Florida home since we have lived there most of our lives.
Moving to Chipley, Florida (north/cental-30 miles south of Dothan, Alabama) middle of August 2009
