I was born and raised in the American South. Graduating from high school at the end of the Carter years, and lacking much in the way of oppurtunites, I joined the Navy and served for ten years in the Submarine Service. When the wall came down, I got out as the Service was shrunk as part of the peace dividend.
Once a civilian I worked a year in a local electronics retailer, then managed and ultimately owned a small used and rare bookstore. Losing the store in the wake of 9/11, I am now a househusband.
My interests:
Many and varied, many and varied...
To Do:
-United States Naval reactor- Check and correct descriptions of submarine classes. (The SSBN descriptions are particularly hideous)
-Chevaline- Check and correct in light of the new information located by Allen Thompson
-Polaris missile- is badly in need of cleanup, the Trident page is too, have not looked at the Poseidon page.
