School
High School in the Islands. Man, it doesnt get any better than that. Nights out with my buddies; Nicky, Jeff, Freddie and Bert. Great looking girls,(Debbie Downing) and good friends. I was a little too wild, but in retrospect the only thing I would change is I would have told people how much it meant to be their friends -- and I wouldnt have picked on Chris. I wish Id seen Jeff, George and Emil one last time. Meme your the best.

College
College was what I did to get ahead. I was active duty in the Air Force working as an Avionics Technician; from Airman to Staff Seargent. I remember bouncing my son on my knee while I studied calculus because my wife worked worked during the day and I worked at night so I could take day classes. It wasnt fun, but it worked. I graduated and went to Officers Training School. Thank God for the United States Air Force.
Workplace
I retired from the Air Force and went right to work for ARINC. Im still in the aviation business and still going overseas alot. So, my uniform is now a suit but its not much different than being in the Military. I love it.
