Granimore

Welcome! I hope you enjoy your time with us Great avatar, BTW. Thanks, I "Simpsonized" myself.

Hello, Everyone! My name is Max. I'm a 50 year old funeral director/embalmer living and working in the South. I found Starbase 118 while shopping for ebooks at Amazon. I clicked on the author profile of David Adams, who mentioned how he simmed here, so I thought I'd check it out. I've been married since 1986, have one son, and am a US Navy veteran, OS3, USS California (CGN36) from 1982-1985. I look forward to completing training and reporting for duty.

Granimore stepped into the arrival lounge and looked around nervously. All those years at the Academy, all the training, all the classes, was to arrive at this moment in time. Now that it was here, he could scarcely believe it. He strode into the lavatory to give himself a quick inspection. Shoes polished, uniform crips and clean, ready for action. He looked at himself in the mirror. His gray eyes were opened a little wider than normal, no doubt due to the anticipation of his first training mission. His sandy blonde hair was cut to military precision, his normally fair complexion tanned from a recent hiking trip prior to this assignment. At just under six feet, he wasn't imposing by any means. Anyone looking at him wouldn't think twice about him, dismissing him, perhaps, as a non-threat. But years of martial arts training had left him confident, strong, and agile. His jovial personality belied the determination and steel he brought to any challenge. And this assignment was one challenge he would rise to meet head on.
