Ron's Story

Life Where do I start.. ?? Well some of this will be new information, even to those who thought they knew a lot about me! I have joined a number of "communities" and am adding more as I remember them. So here goes my life story... and more will be added as I remember details worth adding! lol I was born in Chicago Ill, and attended Grade School at Nathaniel Green School. We moved to Rittman, Ohio around 1977 and I attened Rittman Jr. High. We then Moved to Creston, Ohio where I attended Norwayne High School (North Central School District) From 6th Grade thru High school I worked on a Dairy Farm, which I really enjoyed. I graduated High school, and that summer I joined the Army and took a job in the Military Police Corp. I went to Basic and AIT (job training) at Ft. McClellan Alabama. (Oct 84 - Mar 85) After training I went to Ft. Campbell, Ky and was assigned to HHC LEA MP company where I worked as both a road MP, and then later assigned to CID to work COVERT Ops in Drug Enforcement. I left Ft. Campbell in 1986 and went to Wildflecken Germany where I was assigned as a security MP in a Hawk Missile BN ( 3/52 ADA) My Supervisor at Ft. Campbell offered to get me a job working Drugs Ops in Europe, and I told him, "no thanks, I think I'll just roll the dice and see what happens" (Boy was that stupid! ) Anyway, because of my experience, I was able to get a break from the physical security mission, and because the Desk SGT at the local Military Police Command got a DUI, I was attached as a Desk SGT while in Wildflecken for a short time. I made the mistake of letting my attitude while in Germany help me decide to get out of Active duty and go back home. I stayed in the Reserves in the 361st MP Company in North Canton, Ohio and also attened Stark State College. During which time I worked with Juvenile Delinquents at the Residential Treatment Center in Canton, Ohio and Wayne/Homes Attention C...Expand for more
enter in Wayne County, Ohio. In 1990 the Reserve Unit was activated for Desert Shield /Desert Storm. Which was just enough to make me realize that the Military wasn't so bad after all.... and at the rate I was going, college was gonna take forever! I went back to the Farm for awhile after Desert Storm, and really enjoyed the workout again... During this point I married and had a son, Trevor. (my little buddy! ) In 1994 the Army started letting Prior Service back in (they did not accept prior service for awhile after desert storm due to downsizing) I applied and became an Army Reserve Recruiter from 1995 - 2002 during which times I worked out of offices in Canton, Massillon, Wooster, and Medina, Ohio. My marriage did not make it through Recruiting and I was divorced... After my recruiting tour, I became a career counselor in Springfield, Ohio. I am now waiting on orders to put me in Cincinnati, Ohio as an AR-RAP. (which means I'm kinda back in the recruiting business.. it's a new program, and I'll have to fill ya in later) While back in the Army, I have been living in my home town. Around 1996 I was offered a position by the Mayor on one of his committees for Zoning. I took it and was so caught up that in 1998 I ran and was elected on City Council. Half way through that term I ran for Mayor, and won. Due to one of the previous mayors dying while in office, it was only a two year term. Then against my better judgement, because I knew my Army Job was making it more and more difficult to find time to be in politics, I ran for mayor one more time for a four year term and won... (never saw that one coming)..lol Anyway, that term is up at the end of 2007 and I will be relocating to Cincinnati, so I will focus my time on my Military career until I retire in 3 or 4 years. Wow.. what a lot to read! I hope I covered all the areas in my life, to explain the communities I've joined..
