My teenager knows how to use the scanner, I think. Maybe I'll get her to show me. I just never have a need for that portion of the capability of the copier/fax/scanner. I'm sure it is not difficult. (As he hangs his head abashed by his lack of skills in the computer age.)

Served in the Navy from 1987 to 1992. Aviation Electronics Technician 2nd Class assigned to Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 5 and deployed onboard the U.S.S. Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69).

Here are pictures, both current and from my Navy days:

 

 

By the way, Reggie (my dog) never served.

I would love to see your baby girl, but I'll have to crop her out of the picture for the group. :^) Thanks, Blood! Send date of service and branch, too!

USNA '92. Bailed out of flight school, though, and was re-assigned to CivLand (strange universe in the Early Clintoon Era). Severely regret my decision to leave the Nav prematurely, though.

Picture for public consumption? No friggen WAY (tin foil hat time).

Dear Movemout: I also have a scanner that I don't know how to use. Technical journals are Greek and Latin to me, so that's out. (As she hangs her head abashed by her lack of skills in the computer age.) I couldn't figure out the abacus either, but I'm still trying! LOL! Help us Billie!

Sadly, I lost all of my pictures prior to my 24th birthday in a house fire. But, yes, I did indeed serve our nation proudly in the 82d Airborne at Ft. Bragg, N.C.

I don't know how I could help! With my scanner (of course I couldn't hook it up myself!), all I have to do is turn it on, click "scan" and it pretty much takes over from there!
