Born 11/16/42, I am currently a working Commercial Diver, surface air/gas and a Saturation Supervisor. I was a member of Underwater Demolition Teams 21, UDT 11 and SEAL Team 1. In the Teams I was no hero just a good operator, that seemed to get in a little to much trouble, when not on ops. I saw combat in Santa Domingo and the Nam.
I taught rigging, open tanks, harbor and burning for one year at the College of Oceaneering. I authored “Oxy-Arc Underwater Burning Class”, a 90-minute training video and manual, for Oceans Technology. I am the author of Class-29: The Making of US Navy SEALS
I currently do am article called The Roat Deal at <http://offshorediver.com/ > you can find a poem I wrote at <http://www.specialoperations.com/Stories/green_brothers.html> and something I’m very proud of, called “The American Dream, What Is It?” at <http://www.specialoperations.com/Stories/American_Dream.htm>
If I don’t respond, keep in mind I work offshore in the oil patch and sometimes I’m gone for weeks at a time.
