We have two wonderful children, lived 6 years in Europe, 3 years in Korea, 4 years in Hawaii, and all over the USA. I deployed many times, traveling extensively throughout the Pacific, Asia, and Europe.

e duty as a Colonel in 2006 after 30 years of service. Some highlights of my career were to work with Navy, Air Force and Marine units on deployments, attending the Naval War College in Rhode Island, serving with NORAD and US Space Command, duty on the East-West German Border and on the DMZ in Korea. My duty took us all over Europe, to China, Johnston Atoll, Guadalcanal, the Marshall Islands, Japan, and many other pleasant (and a few unpleasant) places. The Army allowed me to earn two Master’s degrees along the way, and visit many interesting places. We’re fully retired homebodies now, having spent many years traveling around the world.
