About me
[edit]
I'm a retired Sapper and Soldier who spent 20+ years in the US Army. I use the term 'Desert', because I've spent enough time here, here, here, here, and here to still be kicking the sand out of my boots.
As a fan of the Oklahoma Sooners, I decided to check out Wikipedia on a whim. Finding some seriously lacking information, I decided to invest time in my first article, Kelly Gregg. From that point forward, I've been hooked, and have devoted wayyy too much time to various WikiProjects.
I look forward to working on making the Oklahoma Sooners football|Oklahoma Sooners a wikipedia presence, and educating the world about the US Army via articles and links.
