I am a retired sailor and proud veteran of the United States Navy. After having served 26 years in the US Navy I then found work with a Ship Repair Company located in Sasebo, Japan. I served all of my career in the Pacific. I served two years on a ship homeported out of San Diego, Ca. The majority of that two years was spent in Viet Nam. My ship returned to the United States and I departed active duty to make my home in Oklahoma City. I realized after one and a half years how much I missed the sea and my travels to foreign ports of call. I re-entered active duty and the rest is history and served the remainder of my career in duty station and ships in Japan with one year spent on a ship homeported in Hawaii. I am currently retired from the work force and will spend the rest of my years on enjoying the good life. I am thankful for the blessings that have been bestowed upon me and my family. View more posts
