Military Experiences

Special Duty - USAF Solar Observing Optical Network (SOON)
Couldn't have picked or designed a better 22 year career. Retired from here. Then went on to be an engineer for NASA @ Armstrong Flight Research Center in CA from then to now.
Jan 1985 - Jul 1993
Special Duty - USAF Solar Observatory (RSTN/SOON)
Tried to extend one more year to finish a project, but was told the General said "Get off my island". 8.5 years in HI was a lot of fun. Plus over 30 TDYs to Italy and Australia.

Great assignment, lots of history. Great food. You just had to look out for the UXOs that were all over the place.

I separated for 10.5 months. Missed the people and camaraderie. This was my first assignment back. I wanted out of here the day I got here.
