Hey all, I joined the Navy back on 1Nov82 left from Denver and spent just short of 8yrs in. It took me much longer than I wanted, but I am back home now and glad to be back!
I joined the Navy in the summer of 1972 and did a 4 year stint. I totally enjoyed my job as a personnelman but hated getting underway (sea sickness). Had there only been shore duty, I would have probably made the Navy a career. After mustering out, I worked for 31 years for the U.S. Gov't and retired 3 years ago at the age of 55!!!
Moved to CO in 2001. Served in the Seabees in VIetnam. A Navy group goes to every Army/Air Force or Navy/Air Force game at the AF Academy. This year--NAVY. GO NAVY!!!!!!!
