ny Jan 2002. Not realizing I would be sent to Israel in support of our units during OIF in 2003. Returned to Germany and accepted a position in Saudi Arabia where I worked for 2.5 years in support of the ambassador. Left for a position in Texas which I was extremely disappointed with and returned to Europe. I have been now offered a position back in DC and will be leaving shortly. As an individual I am now an activist and am deeply saddened by our status in the Middle East. At FVHS I was still in my coccoon or shell but boy did I get into my A+ personality quickly. Was arrested in Oklahoma City in "68 for dancing with a black female. My best friend, a minister from chicago, last name Pomeroy died he was my mentor. God rest his beautiful soul. He showed me the path. Non-violent activism. It works. Just ask the hard correct questions. Sometimes you get answers most times you don't. I've really developed quite a personna and I enjoy being who I am today. Enjoy humor to its fullest extent and love life. I'll continue this later need to give my fingers a rest. Stay tuned there's more.
