School Story:

All of it, trying to find a niche, Friday night football, all the other sports and making some of the best friends one will ever have. Wishing I had applied myself a little bit better, paid attention a little bit more, everything I preach to my boys now. Wow 30 years, I think my artiries just harden a little bit more.

Hawaii.
Japan
Phillipines
Diego Garcia, a small island in the Indian Ocean.
Norfolk/Va. Beach
Maryland.
USS Forestal
USS Enterprise
USS Eisenhower

If you could build a second house anywhere, where would it be?

I think on a nice quiet lake where there is 4 seasons and the fish always bite.

How often do you get back to Chesterfield?

Few times a year.

Would you ever move back to the Chesterfield/Midlothian area?

If I could get a job similar to what I have now I might.

What did you do right after high school?

Spent the summer swimming and goofing off (did do a little work) than went into the Navy.

What do you do now?

Work as a Human Factors engineer designing the next Heavy lift Helicopter for the Marine Corps. Have also worked on the New Presidental Helo and the Joint Strike Fighter.

How did you get into that?

It isn`t what you know but who.

What did you want to do or think that you were going to do when you finished high school?

Didn`t have a clue, so I joined the Navy.

What did you always want to do that you haven't done yet?

Do the outer loop of the U.S on my Scooter.

High points of your life since high school:

Marriage, birth of my two son`s, being selected as a Chief Petty officer in the Navy, retirement from the Navy and payinig off the Bike. I`m sure I am missing something.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

I try to be lazy but I get bored with that.

Favorite place to go?

Places that are quiet. A golf course, a ride on the bike a dive bar with good food.

How old do you feel?

Depends on the time of day and what activities I`m doing.

Any gray hair yet?

I have had gray hairs since 1983.

What would we be surprised to know about you?

That I wish I was still cruising the seas in the Navy, when you are in, you want out but once you are out you realize that it really wasn`t all that bad.

Biggest thing you would do differently if you went back to your time at Clover Hill?

Lets see, staying away from the young ladies, staying away from Ronnie and Joe and those other members of the CFV, they were a very bad influence. I would have than had all kinds of time to study and be smart student.

What are your memories of high school(i.e. secret crush, embarrasing moment, favorite hang out, favorite teachers)?

Lets see, chasing the young ladies, hanging out with Ronnie and Joe and the other members of the CFV, and not studying like I should have and just skimming by to get that diploma.

Famous or interesting people you've met?

I have had the privledge of eating dinner with two Presidents and a Russian Premier. Of course all three times were on the mess decks of aircraft carriers and I could get a glimpse of them if I craned my neck and leaned way over.

Tom Selleck during his Magnum P.I days.

Any words of wisdom?

Your easiest day was yesterday....

Make it count the first time, but should you mess it up, there is always someone who can fix it.

Tracers work both ways.

Anything else we should know?

Still pretty much the same guy I was in high school, just a little wiser to the ways of the world.
