Michael's Story
Life
Email is MBwilliamn at Aol. I'm also on facebook in Lithia, FL. I don't check this much so contact me on one of those. Man that could get lengthy...here goes the 2 page summary. Went to Berry College 2 years, 2 1/2 years in West Ga College, commissioned as 2LT in 88, went to Medical School. Quit med school during finals (a. Sick to death of school and b. couldn't see enjoying life as an MD...p.s. always remember 70 is passing even in Med school!). Got married (to another LT) and went to flight school in 89-91 (just missed desert storm) went to the 11th ACR in Fulda Germany (south Alabama to Germany in JAN...one word... COLD!! I slept ON the radiator heater for the first week!) Daughter born in Germany 3 months early and 1 1/2 pounds (she's fine now....started driving...shiver!). Back to the US in Dec 93...Wife got out of the Army and I went to Rucker again then on the 101st Airborne Division. Personnel Officer, Asst Ops officer, Intel of...Expand for more
ficer and son was born (this one only 3 WEEKS early). Commanded an Aviation Maintenance Company. One of my Executive officers Went to North with my younger brothers (can you say "small world?"). Short school at Fort Lee, VA in 98 then to Redstone Arsenal, AL where I worked for Defense Intelligence Agency doing Missile Intel work (please tell me how they got this assignment for an Aviator, Maintenance Officer or Operations research Analyst? Must be that Army Logic!). To Ft Leavenworth for a year (good side of the wall!) for General Staff School then to Orlando for a tour as a project manager for Special Forces Aviation Simulators. I'm now in Tampa at US Special Operations Command as the Deputy Executive Officer for all SOCOM simulation and training. Moved back to Orlando and took Command of a Program Management office responsible for all Army Aviation Simulators. I could have retired this year, but I think I'll wait to see if I make Full Colonel.
