Was in the USN for just over nine years, in which I was a submarine nuclear reactor operator for four years and performed shipyard radioactive maintenance oversight for another three years.
I have been to quite a few places while I was in the military: Japan, Philippines, and Australia were the foreign countries I visited. As for the US, I have been to Washington (four years), Virginia (four months), Hawaii (three years), Guam (repeatedly visited), and South Carolina (two years)
I have a grey tabby cat that follows me around everywhere and likes to think she is a think a lap cat.
