Terry's Story
Life
I attended Lutheran North High School my freshman year. My Sophmore year took me to Hazelwood Central. After the Hazelwood schools split up, I attended Hazelwood East for my Junior and Senior years. After graduation I attended Florissant Valley Community College for 2 years and worked part time as a truck driver and stock clerk. I met the love of my life in June of 1978, and we were married in June of 1979. We have 2 Sons, Christopher (31) and Nickolas (28).
I joined the United States Air Force in August of 1980. My assignments took me to England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, France, Italy, Spain, the Azores, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt, Japan, the Phillipines, Korea, Hawaii and most of the states in America. With the Lord's help, I made it through Desert Storm, Desert Shield, Southern Watch, the bombing of Khobar Towers, the war in Iraq, and the war on terrorism. I've made alot of friends, and lost a few before their time. I retired from active duty on 1 May 0f 2006 and landed a job with a contractor on Hill Air Force Base. The contractor job eventually turned into a civil service job and now I am an Equipment Specialist for Bomber Landing gear. My wife and I built our dream home here in Honeyville Utah. We decided to live here...Expand for more
in the west and absolutely love it. The motorcycle riding out here is second to none!
Workplace
I retired from the Air Force after 25 1/2 years on 1 May 2006. I retired as a Master Sergeant at Hill AFB in Utah. I had been stationed at Hill three times since 1984. I worked in the 84th Specialized Management Sustainment Squadron as Superintendent of the Operations division. My Air Force specialty was 2W071 which is a munitions career field. I handled all of the explosives in the Air Force inventory to include bullets, bombs, and missiles. Everyone says that we "Ammo" troops are a little crazy. We have a reputation in the Air Force for being wild, but I guess you have to be a little wild and crazy to work with explosives every day. It was a great job and one of the tightest career fields in the Air Force. I've made alot of great friends. After my retirement I started working for a government contractor on the base after taking 2 months off after retirement. I worked for the contractor until May of 2007 when I was hired as an F-16 Landing Gear Equipment Specialist. I was transferred to bomber landing gear a year later. It's a great job and I work with people throughout the world. Now I just have to decide when to retire for good.....
