Air Force retiree here. I saw all but two continents, South America and Antarctica. It wasn't for a lack of trying, I volunteered (more than once) for a 1 year tour at McMurdo Base (it's a cool medal). Sadly they didn't need a Space Systems Operator.

Before that I was a life long Navy brat born at Leigh Memorial Hospital in Norfolk, VA. I spent a good portion of my adolescent years hanging around the 600 lbs. steam lab at Great Lakes Naval Training Center. Lived in Chief's family housing in Forrestal Village.

Welcome Aboard!
