Drafted into the Army I retired twenty years later. My first assignment took me to Okinawa where I met and married my beautiful wife Chiko. We have two children, a boy and a girl.

I spent the last five years of my career as commander of our detective/narcotics division which included the dreaded IA section.
I now spend my time relaxing by watching baseball and reading. My favorite authors are David Baldacci, Vince Flynn, James Kellerman and our own Nicholas Sparks. I also took up playing the guitar. I study classical style and really enjoy that.
