When and where were you born? 9-11-58 Pensacola Florida When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? A Pilot Where have you lived? Florida, Texas, California, Maryland, Berlin, Hong Kong, Pennsylvania and Oklahoma. What got you into gaming? My father in law was a Sr. Electrical engineer that worked on the space shuttle. He built a computer, the first one I ever saw. It took up his whole living room. It had a teletype and we programed it to play a 3D game printed on paper, Star Trek, it was like Battleship, only 3D. When you told the computer that you fired and hit the enter button it took like 20 seconds before the printer would print out the results of your shot. We killed many trees playing that game. Your first game you played? The first store bought computer game was on a VIC 20, who knows what the game we loaded in that thing. And what do you play now? COD4 and COD5 Why did you join XI? I was part of the original Breakfast club with Johnny Dos and he got me in the clan. At one point COD5 was all but dead and I made admin. The game survived but for a time I was not too sure it would. What do you get from being in this clan? Well, gaming with my friends! What is your favorite hobby? Flying my airplane, a Cessna 170a What is your favorite travel destination? Loved Austria, but here in the USA the Florida panhandle beaches. Are you married? Widowed, lost my wife Feb 2019 Do you have children? 5, 3 of my own and two step kids What kind of pets do you have, if any? What are their names? One dog, Jazz an old black lab. She keeps me company. Are you a sports fan? If so, what is your favorite team? Nope, hate sports ball of all types. What causes are you passionate about? I have a somewhat rare blood type, not the type but antibodies I don't have that kill will kill infants, I give a lot of blood. Gallons and gallons so far. Do you volunteer? If so, where? What is an interesting fact about you? I lived in Berlin in the early 70's, when I wanted to skip school I would ride the S bahn to East Germany, go through customs and hide in East Berlin all day. I figured nobody would find me there. As a result I hate all things communist! It might not have been too smart of a thing to do! lol Have you continued your education past college or university with career development seminars or classes? What kind? I did not go to college, I have a technical license. I am an aircraft mechanic. Retired now, but am hoping to get my Inspection authorization which will allow me to sign off major type work on aircraft. Did you know what profession you wanted to work in when you started college? Aircraft mechanic Did you belong to any professional organizations? What is your current job title? Retired bum! Did you win any awards or recognitions during your education? Where do you work? I don't What other job titles have you had in your career? Where else have you worked? I worked for American Airlines for 35 years, retired in 2020 Why did you choose to work in your industry? Love aircraft Why do you like your job? How would you describe your career? What are some accomplishments you've achieved during your career? I didn't kill myself. Describe a time that your career was rewarding. I loved working on aircraft, hated the airlines. The most rewarding day is the day I retired. If you could give a younger person career advice, what would it be? Don't be a mechanic, be a pilot! What is your favorite thing about your career or industry? Airplanes! What is a valuable lesson you learned in your career? Doesn't matter how much you care at the airlines they will beat you down. What do you hope to accomplish in your career? Are you involved in any professional/ non-profit/sports organizations? If so, do you have a title or rank within these organizations? What is your favorite sport? Do you play any sports? If you were granted 1 wish, what would you wish for? I could go back in time, I would have not gotten married so young and would have gone in the military. If you won a very large amount of money what would you do? Buy a faster airplane of course! Then buy a new house for all XI members! -------------------------------

When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? I think it was a pilot, or work in the Royal Navy. Never did, so instead I pretend I do in video games Where have you lived? My hometown, then Farnham in Surry, and now Canterbury in Kent What got you into gaming? Just something I started off really early as a kid, and its been something I have loved ever since!

And what do you play now? I play a LOT of things, I don't think I can put them all here but here are my top 5 that I play now: War Thunder CoD 2 7 Days to Die Project Zomboid ARMA 3 Why did you join XI? My dad used to be an Admin in CoD2 way back when I was a teenager. I was the first JR member - you can double check if you'd like but when he left, I had to go with as I was only a JR but when I hit 18 or so, I came back, told folks in CoD2 who I was, and the rest is history. I am now a well established member of the clan, and an admin for CoD2 - something I never thought I would get! What do you get from being in this clan? A wonderful group of idiots in CoD2 I call my extended family. I have known them for about 14 years, and I have a lot of fond memories of all of them. Loader has been someone close to me for a very long time, and helped me grow into who I am now in the clan. What is your favorite hobby? Gaming, duh! My Steam account keeps growing, but I also have GOG and Origin games on top of that!! I have recently gotten into Warhammer: Age of Sigmar, Warhammer 40k, and Magic the Gathering. Keeping me busy, and my bank account empty. What is your favorite travel destination? Bed, as I have never been abroad in my life, but I hope to change that one. What kind of pets do you have, if any? What are their names? I don't own pets, but through my life I have had cats, fish, a snake, a lizard and an owl. Currently, my parents have two dogs, who I love to pieces and wouldn't trade them for anything. What is an interesting fact about you? Have you continued your education past college or university with career development seminars or classes? What kind? I studied at Canterbury Christ Church University in Kent, doing Digital Media. Before that I did some months doing a Games Design course but left that because mental health. Did you know what profession you wanted to work in when you started college? Video games! But sadly, that has fallen to the wayside - but in the interim I am now in IT.

Let's not forget the fallen heroes that gave us everything so we could enjoy the freedom we have as Americans

As much of you know I haven't been on any games unless his mobile or the website much or TeamSpeak but I'm slowly getting back there I almost bought me a $850 laptop it seemed like a decent laptop to play any game nowadays compared to when I stop playing a few years ago I can't believe how much everything has advanced and how much the price of everything has gone up I'm building your own gaming computer laptop Etc. But I will be back soon Texas all the way baby! Miss you guys and would like to meet the new members. I played most games we have servers for when I have a functional PC other than that I'm on pubg mobile Cod mobile every once in a moon but mostly pubg right now game name TexasTXXI

Let start with your clan name? SGT_Smeg COD4 Moderator Do you have any nicknames? Personal or in game? Oh I have been called a lot of things, right @ShadyBrady?! But none seem to stick. So no.... When and where were you born? Born in Washington D.C. in 1962 When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? I wanted to get into law enforcement. Thank goodness I didn't.....if I were a cop you'd probably be reading about me in the news. Where have you lived? Virginia my entire life What got you into gaming? I have been interested in games on computers since my father got his first PC back in 1983. I have never gotten into console gaming like XBOX, Wii, etc. Your first game you played? Duke Nukem using dial up modem's with friends I worked with. And what do you play now? COD4 exclusively and occasionally COD2 Why did you join XI? The people. I used to float around the COD4 servers but the people at XI just made me feel welcome. Well everyone except @ANGU5. What a jerk. What do you get from being in this clan? Is it weird to say I get withdrawals when I have to skip a few nights of playing? I love this clan and the people in it. They are like my second family. What is your favorite hobby? Photography and boating What is your favorite travel destination? Wow this is a tough one. Florida Keys is at the top of my list. Are you married? Yes. Will be 37 years in October. Can't imagine life without my wife, Jona. Do you have children? Yes, one son and one grandson. Thomas who is 31 and his son Tilian who will be 3 in October What kind of pets do you have, if any? What are their names? Dogs. Rusty (Jack Russell Terrier) and Koi (a Sato rescue dog from Puerto Rico) Are you a sports fan? If so, what is your favorite team? No, I never watch professional sports. It used to be the Washington Redskins until they went woke. What causes are you passionate about? Giving back to my community Do you volunteer? If so, where? My wife and I volunteer with our local fire company. We are both life members going on 15 years. I served as the Vice President of the fire company for 7 years, now we focus primarily on Life, Safety & Education hosting community events teaching about fire safety. We are both passionate about scouting. Our son is an Eagle scout and as Scoutmaster of my sons troop, I mentored 24 Eagle scouts and was the recipient of the Scoutmaster Award Of Merit. We no longer volunteer as scout leaders, but it was a big part of our lives. What is an interesting fact about you? Nothing in particular. What you see is what you get with me. People can usually tell everything they want (or don't want) to know about me within the first 10 minutes of meeting me. I am very down to earth, respectful and have never met a stranger. Have you continued your education past college or university with career development seminars or classes? What kind? I went to technical / trade school. I have, however, been in many technical training courses as part of my corporate training development to support their operations. Did you know what profession you wanted to work in when you started college? I did not go to college other than a few night classes. I stopped taking classes. It wasn't helping my career and it just wasn't my thing. Did you belong to any professional organizations? No What is your current job title? Senior SAN (Storage Area Network) Engineer. Did you win any awards or recognitions during your education? No Where do you work? I work for Baptist Memorial Health Care Corporation. We are a large chain of hospitals and clinics throughout Tennessee, Mississippi and Arkansas. What other job titles have you had in your career? Too many to list. All centered around the various positions in IT that I have held Where else have you worked? I worked at the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) for 18 years. These are the people with the label on the 'Nature Made Vitamins'. Other than that I have worked for many companies around Washington D.C that were contractors to the United States government and U.S. military branches. Why did you choose to work in your industry? IT is very interesting and challenging. It is an industry that has many different paths to take, career wise. It also pays well. It is also a very cut throat industry, working many hours when everyone else is off such as nights, weekends and holidays. Why do you like your job? I like being challenged. Work is boring if you're not being challenged. I like technical things, and working on the infrastructure of a datacenter is the basis for everything that happens in that datacenter. No servers or databases or applications that people use will work without the infrastructure that I put in place. How would you describe your career? My career in IT has been amazing. I learned to program mainframes on punch cards back in the 1980s. Anyone that has ever used punch card machines and run that deck through a card reader knows just how far things have come with regard to computers. I have had the ability to reinvent myself many times over my career. Sometimes by choice and sometimes because I was laid off because a contract I was on was lost. I have gone from mainframe programmer to open systems (Unix) System Administrator, to Enterprise Backup Engineer to Storage Area Network (SAN) engineer. The opportunities in IT are literally limitless. What are some accomplishments you've achieved during your career? Too many to list. Mostly personal goals achieved and many company recognitions. The list would bore you to death. Describe a time that your career was rewarding. One of the most rewarding times in my volunteer career at my fire company was receiving the Loudoun County Combined Fire-Rescue System award for exceptional leadership for new members system wide. This is an award that was presented to me by the Loudoun County fire rescue leadership. This award is presented to one person every year who is chosen from the thousands of career and volunteer fire staff within the combined system. It made me feel like I really made a difference, and I am very proud of that recognition. If you could give a younger person career advice, what would it be? You are the only thing getting in your way. All you have to do is have the tenacity and willingness to learn. Put forth the effort to learn. Forget about instant gratification and keeping up with the joneses. That will come in time. Be willing to be the low man on the totem pole and work your way up. Dedication and perseverance will get you everywhere you want to go in life. Don't be the guy who has all the answers. Don't come in with a cocky personality with a know it all attitude. Just don't. Be willing to put in the time, the hard work, the sweat equity into your career and it will serve you well. What is your favorite thing about your career or industry? My favorite thing is working with a team that is as dedicated as I am, doing the right thing and taking pride in what I do. I love working with a group that has different responsibilities in IT than I do, yet we all have the same goal. Brainstorming ideas (because there is always more than one way to get a job done) and coming to an agreement on the best path forward.....and then implementing that to a successful completion is just so awesome. What is a valuable lesson you learned in your career? I learned that being humble, being open minded, listening and learning is all that you need to succeed. What do you hope to accomplish in your career? I am done with accomplishments. I love what I do now and I look forward to hopefully retiring in 4 years or so. Are you involved in any professional/ non-profit/sports organizations? If so, do you have a title or rank within these organizations? No What is your favorite sport? Is fishing a sport? Do you play any sports? Is fishing a sport? If you were granted 1 wish, what would you wish for? To retire and travel (mostly on the boat) with my wife If you won a very large amount of money what would you do? Buy a bigger boat
