Patrick's Story
Life
Graduated from the University of Florida in 1977, went to work for 'United Telecommunications' (Now known as US Sprint) in Altamonte Springs for 2 years. Transferred to the United Corporate HQ (Head Shed) in Kansas City (actually in Shawnee Mission, KS.. a beautiful piece of the United States) where I worked as a Senior Accounting Manager until 1990 - Sprint had a huge "Corporate Downsizing" at that time...6000 people. Went to work for the United States Marine Corps in 1992 as a Government Accountant - I am still a DOD Accountant when I am not in an Air Force Uniform... Right now I am on Active Duty as an Air Force Reservist...

ter my tour was up, worked then went to college. Did some time in the Guard Unit in Ocala for a short time, then joined the Air Force after being Laid Off by US Sprint Corp in Kansas City.

Got Called up and sent to SOCCENT (Special Ops command in Tampa) right after 9-11, have served there since on Active Duty for all but approximately 11 months of civilian time. Have made numerous trips to the Middle East (my second home) many to IRAQ and Afghanistan. I can't tell you what I do for the Air Force, if I do tell you I'd have to kill you! (LOL).. I'm still serving on Active Duty with the Air Force until at least Dec of 2007.
