All good things must end, and so I am now retiring and demobilizing
back to my civilian job in Camden County. This photo is on the occasion of
my receiving the Legion of Merit Award this morning [2/27/2002] at my retirement
ceremony after more than 32 1/2 years of Active Army and Reserve Service. The
LOM is one of the top peacetime awards for distinguished and meritorious
service, and I'm very proud to be so honored. I'll be back to work in Camden
the first of next month. The award was signed by and Secretary of the
Army Thomas E. White and Lt. Gen. Paul Mikolashek (Commander of Army
Central Command and Third U.S. Army). It was bestowed to me in LTG
Mikolashek's absence (he is of course deployed to Kuwait) by Major General Mike
Mayo, who is Commanding General of the 81st Reserve Support Command.
