SINCE TCN:
Went in to the Air Force in 1990, spent to years in Northern Maine, (Limestone Maine) felt like I was in Antarctica. I was deployed to Saudi Arabia during the first Gulf War. I was sent to Germany in 1992 to 1995, and never wanted to come back. I spent 3 awesome years there. While in Germany I was deployed to San Vito Italy for 6 months, to support operations in Bosnia. That was more like a vacation than a deployment! I met my wife while I was home from Germany for Christmas 1994, I flew her to Germany so we could spend some time together and we ended up getting married there. I was sent to Tucson Arizona in Aug 1995, I was then again deployed to Saudi Arabia from Oct 1998 to Feb 1999. I then finished out with the Air Force and returned to the area where we have been ever since.

MEMORIES OF TCN:
Most of the best memories where from the sports side. When we went to state and a certain person forgot their shorts. Luckily I had an extra pair of red shorts with me. Me and Haun Porter having to stay in the same room as the coach, which we dumped a bucket of ice water over his head when he was in the shower. Playing bumper tag on the icy roads in January.
Larry McCalment, I have to say he did make up for those 2 goals. When we went to state and he kicked a goal in from almost 3/4 of the field away.

TCN SPORTS & ACADEMIC AWARDS:
Biggest academic achievement was just staying sane in our isolation cubicles in a basement.
