 Additional Information
What are you doing now:

I took an early retirement under TERA in 1997 (19 yrs), after which I worked as a government aircraft maintenance contractor.  I hold FAA Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) with Inspection Authorization (IA) certificates, in addition to an FCC General Radiotelephone Operator's License (GROL) (w/ Radar Endorsment).  I also hold a FAA Commercial Pilot's certificate with Instrument and Single/Multi Engine ratings.

We moved around almost as much as we did when I was on active duty; we lived/worked in: RAF Mildenhall, UK, NAF El Centro, CA, Kirtland AFB, NM, NAS North Island, CA, Imperial, CA, Sierra Vista, AZ, Webster Field, MD, JB Andrews, MD, and MCAS Yuma, AZ.  I retired in 2022 after 43+ years in aviation. 

Gabrielle got out of the Navy in 1991 as a YN2 and worked for the US Government (GS). In 2022 she retired as a GS-13 with 30+ years of military/federal service.
