Good morning, I joined this site as a father wanting to learn more about specific Military MOS that my oldest child is looking at joining. So that I might better understand and be informed of her choice of military career. Right now (CA and PSYOP) I believe is what she is looking at. Also, I can see this site has much more beyond that, and for a civilian it would keep me better informed about support and solid charity's for wounded and or deployed Military.
My Background: Born in West Texas, college at Texas Tech University BS in Agronomy, Minor in Animal Husbandry.(1990) Worked for ADM & Conagra over a period of 10yrs, loved the people. (marketing and hedging) I was on the floor of the CME for both companies. During the market crash of 1999-2000 I decided to leave and do something different and was a golf course construction superintendent for Wadsworth LLC. And then a then a Director of maintenance for American golf and EGAL golf management companies till 2010. During my years in golf I ended up back in Texas, ended up starting a family business with my cousins out west and I do all the marketing of our products since (cattle, wheat, cotton). I never stopped trading (my money) and carried over my expertise on the floor to the electronic futures arena. If the pits had not gone away, I would still be in Chicago.
Offshoreman: is not because I have money in offshore accounts. I love offshore fishing probably because I grew up on the plains and spent summers decking for my uncle boat. I have kept a boat in Port Aransas area for years. I used it (handle, and not such a clever one at that) on a fishing website many many years ago and it has stuck for my official social network crap.
