 Additional Information
Last Known Activity:

Not a whole lot. When I retired from the Navy in 75, went to San Diego City College for appliance repair. Got a job with then Montgomery Ward repairing all major appliances.Stayed with them for about 17 yrs.
Opportunity came along in 93 to go back to teaching at weld school Naval Station San Diego. They now had civilian instructors.
The school moved to the Great Lakes in 95. Around six of us instructors went with the school, then put it in commission the first part of 96.
My last class with the school was Oct.99.
Now fully retired in San Diego.
