Thanks John, nice of you to say those things.
I enlisted in the Navy in '73 when Viet Nam was winding down and once it was officially over we didn't have an active war for a while.
I was in for six years active duty as an Aviation Electronics Technician and loved my job and being involved with Naval Aviation. I'm a WWII buff and grew up fascinated with the Carrier/Naval battles with the Japanese in the Pacific; that's one of the reasons why I joined the Navy. I was lucky to get to work on aircraft and serve on a carrier (USS J.F. Kennedy).
When I think back now I only remember the amazing things I got to do and places I saw and lived and the friends I made there.
