Bill Russell:  

After BHS, I attended Catawba College (BSc Chemistry). After graduation I joined the USAF as a pilot then nav/bomb. In 1978 I moved to Houston where I got my second degree, Pharmacy in 1986. I worked as an oncology pharmacist at M.D. Anderson Hospital for two years before deciding to rejoin the military (and get moved out of Houston).

Retired as a Captain (same as a Colonel in the Army or Air Force) in 2008. Since then I've worked as an on-call pharmacist in northern Virgina (I live in Springfield, VA).

The little guy with me in my photo is Linda's grandson, Grant, with whom I bonded when he was 2. He's quite special. Favourite place to visit is England. I usually go for 2-3 week stays each year. Since BHS I've wanted to visit the home of Wagner and his Festspielhaus in Bayreuth, Germany, as well as Beethoven's birthplace in Bonn. Finally did both. I visited Bayreuth in Sept 2012 and Bonn in June 2013. In July 2013 I also visited the grave of Gen. George S. Patton in Luxembourg. By the way, I cannot recommend Viking River ...Expand for more
