Michael's Story
Workplace
I have worked at the Aerospace Corporation since May of 2002. Since then I have learned more than all of my other jobs combined. Mostly what I do is support the engineers and run the electronics lab. I also help with the design of circuit boards, laying the circuits out and for simpler boards I mill the boards, solder the components and test the boards. We are always working on pretty cool projects. I am also involved with our optical lab, mostly working with fiber optics and lasers.
Military
I joined the Navy in May of 1989. After boot camp I went to the first phase of Nuclear Power school's Electronics program. Unfortunatly after about 5 or 6 months I got dropped from the program. While at the school I learned alot about electronics and soon started Basic Electronics school at the other end of the base. I spent about 12 more weeks in Orlando and then went to Great Lakes for the seco...Expand for more
nd half of Electronics school. After school was over I spent about 2 1/2 months as a gate guard for the base. After that experience I went to Denver Colorodo Lowry AFB for Precision Measurement School. Although it was only 10 weeeks long I had an awesome time at that base. In June of 1991 I went to Norfolk, VA to what would be my new home for the next 4 years, the USS Emory S. Land. Unfortunately since it was a submarine tender we rarely went anywhere but I still had a great time and met some great people. In May of 1995 I got out of the Navy. I kind of wish I would have stayed in for 2 more years but oh well. Overall I think I had a great experience in the Navy and will always remember the experiences I had and the people I met.
P.S. If anyone is interested in how the Orlando base looks now that it is closed I have pictures that I would be happy to share with you. I have pictures from 2001 and 2003.
