The
one thing that stands out for
me, other than the "normal" relationship with Mr. Adamson,
which we all share, is while I was in the
U.S.
Marines
I worked my way to
"Choice of Duty Station",
which I got.
I chose STATE DEPARTMENT SECURITY which is "Spit and Polish"
duty, hard, but "if" you pass the school, you automatically
get next rank and select duty. I
wanted to be an Ambassador Body Guard.
Well, I aced the school, 3rd in a class of 67 and got
my Sergeant stripe. Then I
walked into Navy Intel for my security clearance and could not make them
understand that “MR. ADAMSON” was my guardian on all my military
records, next of kin, etc. I
had no one else that I knew of or where they were.
Well, they couldn’t understand our relationship.
Anyway, I missed the posting date which is only once a year and
went to Twenty-Nine Palms,
California
as Nuclear Ordinance Security.
Where would we be without a "MR. ADAMSON"! |
