I set out early with three objectives in mind: to be an artist, a musician, and a soldier, making the rank of master sergeant before retiring. I accomplished those and now extend my mission in life to serve Christ, play guitar for others, and spend my days doing nothing when possible.
I retired from the 525th Military Intelligence Group, under XVIII Airborne Corps at Fort Bragg, N. C. in 1980, having served as the initial Special Security Officer for the 82nd Airborne Division before retirement
