After I graduated from High School in 1974 I moved to CA. and joined the Air Force. I served at Travis AFB in Fairfield CA. as a Crew Chief on C-5 cargo aircraft from 75' to 79'. In 1979 I then hired on at Mare Island Naval Shipyard Yard in Vallejo CA. and completed a Marine Machinery Mechanic apprenticeship in 1983 and was a journeymen mechanic from 83' to 94'. I then transferred with my family to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard Yard in Bremerton WA. and was promoted into a management position to finish out my career. I retired on January 2nd. 2018. I work at playing golf, and enjoying life. Moved my wife Barbara and I with our two dogs to Vermont in August of 2022. Moved my wife Barbara and I with one dog back to Silverdale WA. on April 1, 2025. Barbara and I enjoyed time spent living in New England.

I attended Wilde Lake High School from 1972 to 1974 when I graduated. The original HS was in a different location near by. The architecture of the building was round with the library in the middle. The school curriculum was progressive with class modules that you could attend by choice. You learned at your own pace, which I found challenging. You had class subject requirements to complete, and once completed you could advance...Algebra II to Trigonometry for example. I enjoyed my time at WLHS. It seemed like a lifetime ago.
