I retired from the Navy as a CDR (Same as a LTCOL) in Aug '08. I was offered the next promotion, but I had to do a year in either Iraq or Afghanistan. I chose to retire instead. I wanted to be home with my family.
I am now a Consultant for Booz Allen Hamilton in Norfolk, VA. I am doing basically what I did in the Navy for the last 23 years. We live in Chesapeake, VA, near VA Beach.
