Warren's Story
Life
I graduated from Oregon State University in 1978 and from the U.S. Naval War College in 1993 with a M.A. Degree in International Affairs and Strategic Studies. Retired as a Commander in the US Navy in 2002, and currently live and work in the Washington DC area. I am a U.S. Navy Civil Servant, with the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, Senior National Representative Office.

Sure it was a lot of hard work, but it was also a lot of fun.
