Retired. I worked with computers the majority of my career as an Operator,Tele Comm Analyst, and with CAD ( Computer Aided Design). I have been retired as of 2005. I do research in my spare time on the early Southern New Jersey glass industry, where the art of blowing glass by hand began in America. I also collect and study items from the F4 Phantom II fighter aircraft. I was a mechanic on the environmental systems on this plane in SEA at Ubon RTAFB,Thailand in 1969-70. I have a functioning Ejection Seat (minus rocket) out of a F4D, that I am currently working on.
A compilation of letters sent to family from Thailand in 1969-1970.. I was surprised to see that my mother saved the letters. A lot of the correspondance between us was by the use of cassette tapes, which we just kept on taping over. That info is now lost. I did find one tape that was saved. It was a tape of correspondance from my parents and bro's. My brother transferred it to CD a few years back. I played it for my granddaughter last year, and she could sense the personality of her long gone great grandparents just by hearing their voices. I am glad I retained that tape. Anyway I thought it would be interesting to include the letters in my profile.
