Ronald's Story

Life I graduated a year earlier than was supposed to by doubleing in my Junior year. I was sworn in to the Naval service prior to graduation and went to bootcamp the December following graduation. I have been to many places all over the world and have seen and been through alot. I served on four ships and have experienced the seas in it's best and it's worst. Ever see the movies, "The perfect storm" or "Poseidon"? If you have then you may have an idea of what I am talking about. I even went to the place where the R.M.S. Titanic went down. I have two ex-wives and am currently married, to a wonderful wife and two grown step-daughters. I retired from the Navy back on August, 2004 with a total of 21 years of Naval service. I retired as an enlisted first class petty officer/Boatswainsmate, equal to a staff seargant in the Army or Marine Corps. I had numerous medals and ribbons on my uniform. I have crossed the Atlantic and the Pacific a few times plus sailed on the Meditreanian and Baltic seas. I have been to quite a few countries. The list is long. I have seen some ...Expand for more
action having spent most of 2003 in Kuwait and then way down south to Antarctica for a third time, I even have been to Russia. I actually have been to Hell, Hell Grand Cayman Island that is. They named that part of the island Hell because it was created by volcanic activity. Another island I spent some real time in was Diego Garcia, DG for short. DG is in the middle of the Indian Ocean. I actually had a minor earthquake while there. Now my natural disaster experience is complete. I have been chased by tornados, been in a few hurricanes, (both at sea and ashore) had an earthquake, been doused and almost capsized by rouge waves or a tidal waves, had close encounters with wild fires and I actually had gone through a waterspout bodily. I still have my weird sense of humor and that has come in handy over the years. As you can see in my pic, I am sporting a full beard. I work at Lowe's as a night receiver/stock. I became a step grandfather to three boys as of May, 2005. Yes, I'm now a step-gran-dad. If you want details, you know what to do. Thanks for looking. Godbless.
