Bio 

Right now I live one day at a time, and thank God for every day that I wake up. I am not what I used to be, and will never be able to recover what I lost. Thankfully, the good Lord gave me a strong wife that refused to leave me even when friends tried to advise her to cut her loses. I came back from the war a stranger that she never knew what I was going to do when she came home from work. After separation from service, I was a Security Guard for two companies. Both ended up closing soon after I quit. The first one I left to go to the other one as a supervisor with a very nice raise in pay. After I left they were bought out by another company which simply drained them of personnel and dissolved the name. The second I left when I realized that the owners were not going to support me in handling guards who were not doing their job.
