Marv Tisdale

I think it would be a good idea if everyone would post a blurb on themselves. This would allow everyone to know who they are, what they are doing, etc...

I grew up in Sundown, Texas hunting rabbits, playing football, and getting into trouble. After high school I joined the Air Force. After basic training I was recruited into the Official Security Investigation (OSI). The OSI is the Intelligence/Counter Intelligence/ Target Suppression branch in the Air Force oftn referred to as G2. I pulled missions in Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia during the Vietnam war where I was wounded. I received a Purple Heart and Two Bronze Stars for valor. After the service I returned to the books and earned a tech degree in Electronics Engineering landing a position for a computer company. I married the cute secretary in the front office in 1975 and have three children, Josh, Tara, and Amy. I retired in 2000 as the Director of Sales and Service from a BioMedical firm and moved back to Texas. I suffered a stroke in 2005 and was in a wheel chair for a year. Shortly after the stroke the doctors said I was experiencing PTSD symptoms and recommended I be seen by a dr. at the local Veterans Administration. The VA attempted to retreive my military files and I discovered my file was classified Top Secret with no release date assigned. My congressman was able to obtain a summary letter of my file which was sufficient for the VA to assign me 100% compensation. I am out of the wheel chair and walking, or almost, I bought a motorcycle several months back, a week later wrecked and broke my foot. I doing better now....
I look forward to blurbs on other family members.
FYI Chelsea Tisdale must be a whiz. I barely had this blog going and she requested authorization to post. Nikki I know you must be proud of her.
