I am a USAF B52G instructor pilot who served at Loring AFB, ME and Barksdale AFB, LA. I flew T-37Bs at Laredo AFB, TX and Craig AFB, AL. I served at Seymour Johnson AFB, NC as an Operations Plans officer. Later I joined the SAC Inspector General (IG) Team at Offutt AFB, NE followed by the ACC IG Team at Langley AFB, VA as an Operations Training inspector. I retired as a Lt. Colonel in 1993.
I am a lifetime member of the Order of Daedalians, the Air Force Association, the Military Order of World Wars and the The Military Officers Association of America.
I graduated from Hobart College in 1970 with a BA in mathematics, from Troy State University in 1975 with an MS in personnel counseling and Old Dominion University in 1994 with an MSEd with a concentration in Middle School and High School math.
I am now the Senior Aerospace Science Instructor at AFJROTC Unit NC 802, E. A.. Laney High School, Wilmington, NC.
I have a few acquaintances from my home town who have given their lives in support of our country and who should be remembered for their sacrifice in Vietnam.
