This is my Homepage. I hope that you will find it interesting. It is currently under development and I am working on it on a daily basis, to provide you with information about me, my ideas, my opinions, and my interests. So, please feel welcome to browse around.
I am a combat veteran of the Vietnam War. I served, proudly, with the 57th Assault Helicopter Company, The Gladiators, from 1/6/68, through 1/6/69. I was a Crewchief on a Huey Slick, and flew 262 combat missions, from the end of May, through the Beginning of December.
I have worked at jobs from farm work to walking the Halls of Congress as an Independent Lobbyist for Veteran's Rights, and the POW issue. I have lived on the streets, and have owned my own homes. I have been around the world, and have lived in 47 of the 48 Continental States. I have talked with bums on the street, and have attended dinners with politicians and corporate executives. I have learned from everyone I have met, and it is from those individuals that I have learned about the world and how it works. I value every opinion that has been shared with me, because we are a country "of the people", not of "Special Interests" and, to me, every voice has value. And I believe that Politicians are not "Rock Stars", but are employees of the citizens of this country, and that we have a responibility to make them "good employees", employees who serve their employers, not Special Interest groups and lobbyists, or Big Business, who pass around money and power.
I am proud to be an American, proud to have served my country, and am very proud of my country. We may not all agree on everything, but we are all the same family. All I hear is about the hatred from other countries towards us, yet see their citizens flood here for our freedoms and rights! I watch American citizens who have never done anything for their country but complain about it, invite illegals to move here, foresaking our laws and, as a veteran, it sickens me! I listen to the anger and hatred of citizens who are upset with our government, but never take the responsibility to vote, and it angers me. And I watch our educational system, our manufacturing system, and our economy dissolve, and it infuriates me! I am a proud American, not a user, and what happens over here matters enough to me to make me want to be responsible in my voting, and in my actions as a citizen of this country!
I will be placing my opinions, ideas, and ideals on this page for your viewing, and all I ask is that you view it with an open mind.
Thank-you for your time.
