Joseph's Story
Life
Less than a month after graduating from EPHS I entered the USAF, spent six months in a tech school at Goodfellow AFB, San Angelo, Texas after basic training. Graduated third in my class of 25 in April, '61, then was assigned to Det-3, AF Spec Comm Center (USAF Security Service),Orlando AFB, Florida (Yep! Florida!), where I spent the next 3.4 years! (IT WAS GREAT!) I left the AF in July '64, and married Geraldine Goulart (also EPHS 1960) in May, 1965. We had two wonderful children, David (now crew chiefing C-17 acft in the AF), and Kristine (Univ. of Maryland Graduate, now in HR management at St. Joe's Hospital, Baltimore, Md.) I accepted a position with the National Security Agency in August, 1965,...Expand for more
and retired from that agency on Oct 1st, 1999 after 38 AF and DOD Civilian years. I had many technical and management positions in those years, traveling throughout the Pacific region frequently. That included two three-year tours with the USAF in Australia (leave-of-absence temporarily from NSA to take the USAF position), and some time at sea on a USAF ship (sailed by the Navy, of course). I don't miss the agency or USAF, but I do miss Australia! I have a degee (of sorts) in Cryptology from the National Cryptologic School of NSA. Geri and I are still living in Gambrills, Maryland, where we have been for the past several decades; but we do have high hopes of moving to Florida for a better retirement.
