Bruce's Story
Life
My Spouse
This being my second marriage... I met her in the Ramada Inn Lounge in Hagerstown, Maryland in 1989 while stationed in FT Ritchie, Maryland. I ask her to dance and she turned me down, so I was persistant in talking to her so I ask if we could just sit down and talk then. Of course she said yes, but wanted to scare me off with th " I have two kids" move. It did not work and the rest was history...
My job: I went into the Army after High School as a Military Policeman from '78 to '81. In '81 I continued part time in the Army Reserve and worked for the Richmond Sheriffs Department. In summer of 1985 I worked a temporary position as a Police Officer for Fort Pickette, Va. In the fall of 1985 I re-entered the Army full time and served three years in Germany. I transfered to Ft Ritchie, Md in 1988. In the fall of 1990 I transfered to Panama for three years. In 1993 I transfered to Fort Carson, Co. In 1996 I transfered to Germany and left there in the summer of 2003 and retired officially from the Army in Oct 2003 and resided in Colorado Springs. In Nov 2003 I went to Saudi Arabia as a security supervisor for the Vinnell Corporation.

My Pets
My dog Brutus was born in Panama where I was stationed at during the Easter hollidays in 1991. My wife and her friend were nursing the liter due to the absence of the Mother, and she picked the Brunt or the Brut of the liter and that is why he is called Brutus. He is a German sheppard mix. My other dog is Maxie and she is a Chow/black Lab mix who was a stray and came to my wifes workplace in Colorado Springs in 1994 looking malnourished and beaten. My wife took the dog after learning that the Dog would be put down after 24 hours if no one claimed her. The rest is History.
On 4 June 2001 we had to put Brutus to sleep after a bout with Lymphnoma (cancer) for over a year. Brutus was like a son to us and we will dearly miss him. God Bless him.
School
I have attended Colonial Heights Schools all my life. I started out at Flora M. Hill school. I then went on to CH Junior High. I ended of course at CH High School. In 1979 I started my College education, while I was serving in the Army. My main courses were taken thru Central Texas College. I also took classes on the Army Post thru the following: Univ of Maryland, Chicago Community College, LA Community College. I attended classes part time so it was a slow process. While in Panama in 1990 to 1993, I finished the required curriculum. In May 1992 I fulfilled the requirements and received my Associates Degree.
