Fred's Story
Life
I WAS BORN IN LONG BEACH, CALIF. AFTER HIGH SCHOOL
I JOINED THE NAVY AND SAW THE WORLD. I SERVED ON
SEVEN DIFFERENT SHIPS AND LIVED IN JAPAN FOR TWO
YEARS. I GOT MARRIED TWICE, I GOT DIVORCED TWICE.
I DO NOT NOT PLAN TO MARRY AGAIN. HOWEVER, I DO
HAVE TWO KIDS...A SON BY EX-WIFE #1 AND A DAUGHTER
BY EX-WIFE #2. MY KIDS ARE THE BEST PART OF MY
LIFE, EVEN THOUGH THEY LIVE ON THE EAST COAST.
CURRENTLY I AM GOING TO COLLEGE ON MY GI BILL AND
I'M A CARTOONIST. I ALSO AM RETIRED FROM THE NAVY
AFTER 21 YEARS OF SERVICE.
UPDATE: I am now 50 years of age, and I recently had a double bypass surgery at the VA Hospital. I am recovering very...Expand for more
well, I am very blessed.
School
I am currently pursuing an AA degree in Art, through the VA rehabilitation program. I was one class away from completing my program, Algebra, but I had to go into the hospital for bypass surgery on May 26, 2005, so I will have to delay my completion of the program.
Workplace
I am currently an intern at a local paper, doing a cartoon strip called ZACK. I am hoping to find work as a cartoonist, and/or a writer.
Military
I joined the Navy when I was 17, after graduating from High School, in July 1972. I served on 7 different ships, and three shore commands. I retired after 21 years of service.
