Catch Me If You Can directed by Steven Spielberg tells the story of Frank Abagnale Jr.‚ considered one of the most successful con men of all time. I saw this movie recently after renting it from the video store‚ I found it so good that I had to buy it. Frank Abagnale Jr. is an astounding and interesting character.

Home Is Where The Army Takes You. How very true this statement is. Homelife was often everywhere and nowhere at the same time for us. We didn’t settle roots anywhere. We have never invested in anyplace or with anyone. Sure‚ my story isn’t unique in the enlisted world.
