What are you doing now:

Retired on VA Disability. I am a veteran and military enthusiast. I loved my job working for Department of Veterans Affairs. I interacted with veterans and learned a great deal of military history along the way. I have a wonderful wife who keeps me balanced and helps me recognize the reality of life.
