I just moved back to Chattanooga after a 30 whirl wind journey tour of life ranging from 12 years in us Army and the Gulf War (Desert Storm) to living in several countries and states in the US. I am married to a wonderful lady (who I have nick-named “super woman of this age”). I have one son (David) who is married, I have one step-son Adam have a step-daughter Krissy. Krissy is married to Kyle Willard, a soldier (Iraqi Freedom Vet - two tours) they have two of the most beautiful granddaughters that God ever created Kalie 10 and Marissa 6. My Son David is married he and his wife Sara have 2 year daughter, Audrey2-3 and a son 1-2.
I went to UTC for 3 years after high school until the money ran out or my mind decided not work anymore (I am not sure which came first). I bounced around for a couple of years and then in 1981 decided to join the Army and became a Armor Tank Crewman/ Tank Commander and Platoon Sgt (19K30H). I spent 12 years in the army. After my short stint in Desert Storm where I was injured I was given a medical discharge and got to move to where ever I wanted to. For some really strange reason I have yet to totally figure out I moved to Tampa FL. There, 31 years to the day from the date I started my bachelor's dgree, I finally finished my Degree(s) at the University of South Florida. one in Accounting and the other in Management Information Systems(Database design and Management)..
I am very glad to be back home here in Tennessee (you can only look at so much sand and so many palm trees until you realize they all look alike). The beauty of this area and this state cannot be matched anywhere in the world. I know I have been to 15 countries, and 40 of the 50 states and I have yet to find any place where the people are as warm and friendly and nature is so intertwined with our lives that it feel good to look around and see GOD's handy work in this valley we call home.
I can remember spending study hall in the bookstore, running up cardiac hill with Bill Killday and the Cross Country team, going to football games scream our heads off to the point of not being able to talk the next day, and the crazy days of our senior year "the Roar of 74." The school dances, the cross country meets, (it was real trip seeing the faces of an opposing team look at cardiac hill for the first time).

Hey Glenn Happy Birthday. Hope you have a great Birthday.
Hi Mary Hope you have a wonderful birthday with family and friends.
I sure wish we could get more of the Class of 74 on here. This will be our 40th year and it would really be great to do a small get together just to see everyone again. I know at the last big reunion there was only about 6-8 of us.
