Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands
After 35 years as an officer with the Tulsa Police Department, I retired & took a year contract job with the Kwajalein Police Dept. The wife, Scott stayed home to take care of the places and all the critters, while I headed off for my year in a tropical paradise. I am at 90% contract complete now and planning my return to the real world. I have had an amazing time and hope that you enjoy the Atoll, through my Blog. Feel free to email me if you have any questions about my time on the Rock.

Independence Day Celebration



A real community event here, everyone came out to Emon Beach for the venders, games, drinks and of course the fireworks. A barge was anchored out in the Lagoon in front of everyone, who sat on the beach and watched a really great show. Of course the weather was perfect, the fireworks reflecting off the ocean was very impressive.



Last night on a night dive I saw the largest cone shell ever! It was crawling along pushing it’s proboscis at least 3” in front of it, waiting to harpoon it’s next victim.
