Hi I'm Gary LaPook
I have been in the Army Reserve for 27 years, 10 years as Chief of Smoke of an M110A2 8 inch howitzer battery. I also served as a senior armor instructor in M60 tanks for 5 years and am now a Captain in the JAG corps in the 425 CA BN.  In addition to artillery, tanks and machine guns my interests are: flying, shooting, sailing, ham radio, computers, SCUBA and sky diving.   I also have a Yamaha 1980 XS 1100 motorcycle which I ride every day to work. I have posted pictures of it on this site as bike1, bike2, bike3, bike4, bike6. Also look at the Cold Springs Tavern, a biker spot north of Santa Barbara California (an old stage coach stop) at coldsprings tavern, coldsprings tavern #2. I traveled to Sturgis South Dakota last summer and met with other riders of Yamaha XS11 motorcycles. A discription of this trip and photos can be found at: trip. more motorcycle stuff. We had a get together at the Rock Store north of Malibu on May 16, 1999. You can read a report on that and see some pictures at rockstore.  Email me at garylapook@voila.fr in the meantime. Please come back soon and visit me.
