Jim Rice here. I am retired US Army Redleg (Field Artillery). I retired this past Sept after being injured in a commemorative parachute jump in Normandy, France in June 2001 and being told I was too feeble to remain on active duty!
I am now the Senior Maintenance Manager for the Central Maintenance Territory of AutoZone. I manage the maintenance and upkeep of just over 1000 stores from Missouri, Illinois, Iowa down to Florida and along the Gulf Coast and back to our HQ in Memphis, Tennessee.
I model aircraft in 1/32 and 1/48.........when I can, which typically isn't enough.
Here is my picture taken with Dick Cole last July. Dick was Jimmy Doolittle's co-pilot on the Tokyo raid in April 1942.
