Retired in 2007 after 24 years in the Army. Service in many places around the world -- some good, some not so good. I've got waaaay more fond memories than regrets, so I'm a happy guy.

I remain humbled by the continued service to our country by the selfless, courageous, and dedicated professionals who wear our uniforms -- particularly at a time when the strains of their service are exceptionally severe. They will remain in my thoughts and have my enduring gratitude.
