About Me



My Interests

I'd like to meet:

In memory of LTC JAMES WALTON, killed in action on 21 June, 2008 near Kandahar, Afghanistan. LTC Walton was my team leader, Team Alpha, HSSB ETT, Camp Phoenix, AF. He was the best team leader in the Army. There was no better man to take charge, care for his troops, and accomplish the mission. Sir, I will never forget you.
