Comments:

Shortly after high school I joined the Marine Corps in 1999 serving in New River NC deploying to Desert Storm, Belle Chasse LA training Marine Reserve Aviation Mechanics, served at the Embassy in Monrovia Liberia and Frankfurt Germany as a Marine Security Guard, Camp Pendleton CA as an Aviation Structural Mechanic NCOIC, and Pensacola FL as an Instructor/Curriculum Developer. I left the Marine Corps in 2003 as a Gunnery Sergeant to join the Army as a Signal Officer. I have served the last 7 years as a Satellite Communications and Automations Geek in a Light Infantry Battalion. Currently I am in a crap hole called Mezer-e-Sherif Afghanistan living the dream.
During a trip back to Indiana in 2004 I met my wife Ginger through a friend. After dating for a little over two years we were married in January of 2007 at Disney World. Andrew, my step-son, stood in as my best man and has been my best friend every since. Fortunately for me, Ginger and Andrew have been capable of putting up with me and the constant deployments associated with being in the military.
