Post; Introduction


Might as well introduce myelf since I'm already posting.

I was an Air Force brat and then went into the Marines in '79. I was Aviation Radio Repair while active and then was FO for a mortar platoon while reserve.

When I got out I worked as a civilian for both DoD contractors and commercial companies including: AFSCN at Vandenberg AFB and New Boston AFS, Minuteman and Peacekeeper Launch simulators at Vandenberg, Space Shuttle comms at Vandenberg, CCTT at Orlando and Fort Hood. I also lived in Indonesia for 6 years as a SatCom engineer and then traveled the world over a bit working SatComms for various companies. I'm now a independant contractor and am just about ready to go back to work after recovering from 14 months in Iraq which ended in December 04. Next stop Afghanistan hopefully!

Here's a link to pics and narrative from my time in Iraq for anyone interested

Welcome. Man those are some awesome pictures. I hope you keep up the photographic history. Most people never see things like this.
