I've lurked long enough, time to jump in and offer my respects to all of you that *have*, and are *still* fighting the good fight. And a proper tip of the hat to you guys in the pipe-line.
The better part of my time in was spent with the 20th group in MD, prior to heading to GA in pursuit of employment.
Still have good friends that I've kept in touch with since AIMC, and SFQC. Some downrange, some retired. I go back to Fayetteville every so often to visit my old buds and toss back a brew or three.
Outside of work, I'm doing as much as I can with my son and daughter. Very active with their education and youth athletics. They go hunting and fishing, general outdoor stuff with me alot (probably to their mother's chagrin). Basically trying to cultivate 2 responsible people that are well rounded in all respects.
I won't have anything to contribute in the BTDT category, but there are a few things that I might like to chat about. I've done quite a bit of wrastleing and boxing. Actually I've trained with some pretty high caliber NHB and muay thai fighters, and taught muay thai here in GA for a short period of time. Love talking bear-pit stuff.
One day I'll have to broach the skydiving topic. I haven't jumped in 12 years, but did so every weekend that I could for 5. Had to give it up when I started travelling 90% for work. It became impossible to progress my RW skills at the rate of my every-weekend peers. It's hard for me to justify doing it while my kids are at the age they are. Just no need for that risk. I dream about it constantly though
