I was trained at the Academy of Health Science Fort Sam Houston Texas and some of most advanced military brains were doing amazing things back then over 25 years ago

Wow, small world ...huh ... ? I worked in the biomedical department in Darnall Army Hospital at Ft Hood for over 6 years, went to the biomedical school in Colorado and took some classes at Ft Sam Houston too. Got the national commendation medal from them when I left. I was the supervisory biomedical engineer , here, at the V.A. Medical Center ...Fresno for 22 years before I retired too. I was at Ft Hood - Darnall from 1974 thru 1980.

I was in the ASA ( now morphed into the NSA ) when I joined and was a nuclear weapons tech for the 18 months they allowed for that mos. I went into the medical field when my nuke job ended partially because I felt guilty ( the 70s you know ) and because I knew the tech medical world would pay off in civilian life and was a humanitarian oriented job. The military made me promises they kept ... I loved my time served and highly respect the military for doing what they promised they would do. In the 70s finding people to be nuke techs was extraordinarily difficult ... they made big promises to get people both capable and willing. They absolutely kept their word to me. I was able to retire with full benefits when I was 49 years old. Prior to assuming my job as a nuke tech, they made me do a stint at Ft Bragg 82nd airborne jump school. I definitely wet myself a couple of times there, I’m afraid of heights yayahahahaya. Still I loved the military , it’s been berry berry good to me.
