Eugene's Story
Well here it is. I left New York in 1974 and joined the Air Force as a medic. I attended school thru the service and became a paramedic which I kept current for over 20 years. I stayed in the service for 5 years and then did 16 years in the Air Force reserves. I retired from the military in 1995.

Storm was over where I became a cop). While working part time as a cop I did a shift on Thanksgiving 2000 to cover for the police chief so he could go out of state. During that shift I was assaulted by a group of juvenile gang members trying to kill a 17 yr old I had in custody. I interceded and the kid lived but I was hurt. To keep the Bio a little short surfice to say I was put out to pasture after neck surgury and left the force and gave up my practice. I moved to Georgia to get away from the west coast and be somewhere different. I got here in 2005 and really like it.
I am and always have been into classic cars, guns, antiques and photography. Well Hope I didnt bore anyone to death! Gene
