What are you doing now:
After my service career, my first job was with the State of Hawaii as an Adult Probation Officer. Next up was a DoD Police Officer for two years. We returned to the mainlland and I was hired by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) after 18 years I retired from HUD. Taught in the Arizona school system for 4 and one-half years, reahed the age of 65 and retired again. I am now at home with my wife and we are spending quality time with each other.
