This memoir is a riveting account of my journey to become one of America’s finest; a paratrooper and a Special Forces, Green Beret. This memoir will also take you through the very highs and very lows in working for the Postal Service. If you have heard the phrase Going Postal, I will give you tantalizing stories that will place you there with me as I attempted to navigate the mine fields of the Postal Service.After retiring from the Postal Service, with time on my hands, I started reminiscing about our dog Sparky, who we recently put to sleep, and the crazy things the dog had gotten into over the 20 years of his life. After authoring stories about Sparky and enjoying doing so, I turned my attention to my military and Postal careers, realizing I had so many interesting stories to tell about those experiences. With the combination of my military and Postal experiences and the stories associated with each, you will either feel sorry for me, or feel sorry for those I encountered.In titling my book 'Going Postal,' I wanted to provide a different point-of-view of the phrase; mainly because it implies dangerous or unstable people work for the Postal Service. My stories will either confirm that belief or give you another perspective of a postal worker.The stories I share in this book are funny, daring, disappointing, revealing, insightful, and most of all, I believe, entertaining. You will travel with me through basic training, advanced infantry training, paratrooper jump school training, Special Warfare school, in addition to uncountable challenging situations the Postal Service presented. You will then understand why I decided to Go Postal.
