I attended Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas for my undergraduate degree and the University of Phoenix for my master's degree.  I served 13 years military service in the U.S. Army in military intelligence where I worked my entire time in the Washington DC area.  After the military, moved into the healthcare arena where I worked for over 30 years.  I enjoy building things, so I opened my own woodshop in the Spring Hill Tennessee area. I am married and my wife is a registered nurse. We have 3 children and 8 grandchildren soon to be 9. I have lived in the Spring Hill area since 1995.  I assisted Laura Hillenbrand (author of Sea Biscuit) with the information in her book published in 2010-2011 "UNBROKEN".  I am also the president of the 307th Bombardment Group Association Inc. which is a 501C3 non-profit organization that reunites the men and women of WWII with their colleagues from the war each year.  We also aid in finding the MIA men an women of WWII and bringing them home.
