Since August 29, 1997 2:52pm
I work for the Post Office where I do maintenance work for them. Yes I do own guns and know how to use them too. I figured someone had to be wondering that. I also work for Blackbeards Amusement Park at night, as a Maintenance man.
I was in the U.S. Navy from Jan. 1962 to April 1, 1992. I joined
when I was 17 years old and still in school.
The picture below is of me when I retired from the Navy after 30 years
of service, I was a Chief , E-7.
1992(Marshall's
Retirement)
During my years in the Military I went to many different places. The Phillapines, China, Japan, Alaska, Hawaii, 2 tours of duty in Vietnam, Florida, New Orleans, Mississippi, Norfolk, Virginia, Moffett Field, Alameda, and Lemoore CA. So as you can see I went many places and have seen lots of things.
When I was at Moffett Field I was part of a 12 man team, that developed and wrote manuals for overhauling the P3 Orion Engine and Aircraft Assembly Systems. Which are still in use by any squadrons that work on P3's.
I was aboard three Air Craft Carriers.

This tune "Pink Panther" means alot to me. When I was stationed at Moffett Field, I was in a squadron that was called the Pink Panthers. We even had our own wine labels. It was called Pink Penot. We also had the Pink Panther painted on the P-3 Orions that were in our squadron.
