Good afternoon. I'm a 48 year old Marine, currently and permanently serving in an Inactive status. My Wife and I live just outside of Portland, Maine. I will have worked for Walmart for twenty years as of January next.
I say I'm trying to relearn my Man Card because I haven't been off the beaten path in almost six years. In July of 2008, I was diagnosed with Neuro Lyme Disease, Babesia and Ehrlichiosis. They did a number on me and I still haven't fully recovered. I'm not going to dwell on that. Any questions you might have about these diseases, I'll be glad to share what I know.
Your Prior Relevant Training: I was a Scout, (Life, dang it) and a river guide with the O.A.. I joined the Marines in '84 and stayed until '88. I've been in the woods and on the water for a good part of my life.
I'm not going to claim a status any higher than Intermediate on any topics because I lost significant blocks of memory due to the Neuro Lyme and resulting Encephalitis. I may rate higher on some things but, I feel most comfortable with going this way.
I'll primarily be looking around to see what you all know that I still know, as opposed to what I THINK I know. I'm really looking forward to this.
