The junk wax era inspired my enlistment. I was working in a small card shop until it closed in 1994. The owner, like a lot of card shop owners, just couldnt make it work.
US Navy 1994-1998. My job was Cryptologic Technician. Holed up in a locked room listening to the world. Served on USS Cape St George (CG-71). Haze gray and underway most of the time. Served in the Adriatic Sea during the Balkan civil war. Saw ports from Pearl Harbor to all over both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Made some real friendships.
When I got out in 1998, I started this hobby up again and haven't stopped since.
