Three Years Retired!

Since I'm not traveling these days I thought I'd step into Mr. Peabody's WABAC machine.  It's been three years since I retired as a civilian attorney with the Department of Defense.  Very good decision for me as I've been able to explore new and diverse areas of the world, and do many of the things I never had time to do before.  It also allowed me to run for the position I'm in now with the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States, namely, Junior Vice Commander in Chief.  Overall, best decision of my business life!

Mama spent the last few years of my career with me, as we ended up at the United States Transportation Command legal office.  When I retired, they gave me career medal.  I guess if you live long enough you get one of those depending on how high up in the food chain you were.  A special moment at my simple retirement day was Mama receiving a Humanitarian Service Medal for all she did not only for me but for the Command as a whole.  It was a nice gesture from USTC to show appreciation to a dog that made everyone smile when she entered a room for a meeting!
