Hello brothers and sisters!

Active duty USN. IC1

USS Caron
USS Nimitz
USS Vandegrift
USS Bunker Hill

I have deployed 6 times to the Med, South Atlantic, West Pac, and Mid East. I have not been shot at or anything but my ship did get to sink a couple pirate skiffs andwe helped out during relief efforts after the Haiti earthquake. Oh yeah, it was interesting to watch the f-18s ad whatnot take off with bombs and come back empty in 2003.

I am taking up scrapping as something I enjoy to do and might be able to cover some costs. If nothing else, it is an excuse to get out of the house when I have a little time. LOL Right now I am focusing almost exclusively on E-Waste as that is what I actually understand a little about.

I notice that there is another Bunker Hill veteran here. Synin I might be able to guess who you are.

I hope each one of you enjoyed veterans day!

Active Duty Navy since 1992, Should be retiring in a couple of years when I finish off this shore duty time. Past boats are all submarines, Uss Providence, Miami and Pittsburgh. Also did a tour as an instructor and recruiter.

US Navy 86-92

NTC Orlando from 7/86->10/88 including boot camp, NFAS MM 'A' school, and the first half of Navy Nuke school before I rocked out. Humbling experience for a guy who'd never had to learn to study in high school.

Navy Subbase Groton from 10/88->10/90 fixing submarines. Absolutely the coolest job I've ever had. Those boats were some awe-inspiring machines. The guys who serve on them truly are a different breed. Much respect.

USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) from 10/90->3/92 2MMR "THE 2 SCREW CREW" and 4MMR. It was exhilarating to spin open that throttle and feel 96000 tons accelerate in response.

I get kinda embarrassed when people thank me for my service... the way I see it, I got to meet some of the best people I've ever known, and got paid to play with some of the baddest toys on the planet. I feel like I should be thanking them for the experience!

Went to the real boot camp at Parris Island.

I was active duty 1976 - 1983 Spent most of my time at Pacific Missile Test Center, Point Mugu, Ca. Worked as Avionics Technician and Aircrew on A-3 SkyWarriors (The Whales). At the time had the great opportunity to work some of most secret weapons systems. What a ride! Looking back I'm very happy and proud to have served with some of the greatest and most dedicated people I have ever known. It is I that salute all of you that and I say "THANK YOU" for your service.
