I did a stretch in the Air Force with the B-52 & B-47's during Korea. Military is a great life but it just wasn't my cup of tea.

But, I am proud of my service.

I salute all you guys, especially those who put up with it long enough to retire. I did 6 in the Navy, 3 of which was on the Aircraft Carrier Forrestal - Classified Comm Tech. Since getting out I've worked on comms for TRIDENT subs and now at a national lab in Abq.
