narrative description
|
Born and raised in Blenheim, SC; linebacker in high school football. He enlisted in the USMC in 1957, three days after graduating from high school -- his father and grandfather had also been Marines. He was involved in Marine sniping programs continuously from 1962 until his retirement, and was for many years the senior Marine warrant officer in the scout-sniping program.
After he left the Marine Corps in 1983, he spent about a year in civilian life, and was then recruited by the Morrow Project in July of 1984. He spent the a year in Morrow Project MARS team training, until July of 1985; and then a year as a marksmanship instructor. He was frozen by the time cohort 51 began training with the Project.
He was frozen with the other members of team M-12 in July of 1986; his position was loader for the 90mm gun, but mostly as scout for the team.
