A few weeks after graduating, I moved to Kansas and then off to Purdue University where I got my BS Aeronautical & Astronautical Engineering degree in Jan197. I then entered the Air Force and went to pilot training in southern Georgia. For the next ten years, I rose from a KC-135 copilot to an instructor (academic and flight line) for pilots new to the KC-135 (a converted Boeing 707). A few years later I served as the Operations officer in a KC-135 squadron where I was responsible for all the flying and training activities for some 100 crewmembers. Along the way I picked up a MS in Aeronautical Science from Embry Riddle University. For the other half of my Air Force career, I spent ten years at Wright Patterson AFB in Ohio and four years in Langley AFB in Va where I served in acquisition management positions for a F-16 Avionics program to allow pilots to fly low and attack targets at night and then the F-22 and F-35 fighter programs. I retired on 1 Nov 2000. Since then I have served as a volunteer as the President of Purdue Club of Greater Dayton and the Secretary and now President of the Indiana Zeta Alumni Corporation of Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity. I Enjoy reading, stamp collecting, computing and, golf (a bit better than a hacker but not low enough to have a handicap) in my spare time. I married the real estate agent that sold me my house in 1997 and together we have seven grandchildren (ages 22 month to 21 years) whom we love to spoil and spend time with. Had a great time at tour fiftieth reunion -- was so good to see so many there.

Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
