About Me

"Special Forces Soldier"

I was that which others did not want to be.
I went where others feared to go, and did what others failed to do
I asked nothing from those who gave nothing, and reluctantly
accepted the thought of eternal loneliness should I fail
I have seen the face of terror, felt the stinging cold of fear,
and enjoyed the sweet taste of a moment's love..
I have cried, pained, and hoped, but most of all,
I have lived times others would say are best forgotten.
At least someday, I will be able to say I was proud of what I was....
A Special Forces Soldier

...and that would be...

2nd Battalion, 1st SF Group, 18 Bravo. MACVSOG CCN SSgt My nickname is Ghost because I'm good in the woods. HALO Jump master, 2 Silver Stars, 3 Army Commendation Medals for Valor, 1 Soldier's medal, 1 Air Medal, 7 Bronze Stars for Valor, 1 Purple Heart and all in less than 5 years. Medals don't mean shit. My brothers in arms are all that were important to me.

I can either be your best friend or the meanest mother you would ever want to meet.

I'd like to meet

God. And if I get to Heaven and God forgives me for my sins, I would like to have another beer with my best friend Jerry "Mad Dog" Shriver.

Activities

Sky Diving, Skiing, Horse Backin' and Wranglin', Hunting, working on my ranches and Traveling around the country and world to visit my Kids and Grandkids. (Life was easy before I retired early). No regrets. I still own a major life insurance company, but I employ people to run it for me. Isn't it ironic, a life insurance business owned by a guy nicknamed Ghost. That even cracks me up.

If you can't afford a doctor, go to any airport - you'll get a free x-ray and a breast exam, and; if you mention Al Qaeda, you'll get a free colonoscopy.
