 Additional Information
What are you doing now:

Retired from Service plus retired from Lockheed Martin out of Fort Worth, after building the F-16 for the Air Force.
Now trying to travel a little when I can.  Injured in 2004, and had a Spinal Core injury placing me in a wheel chair,  paralyzed. Not to much distant travelling now days.
