| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | My most memorable childhood experience is going fishing with my grandmother. |

| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | When I was a young man I walked into a glass door twice in a matter of minutes in front of close friends. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | First, I would visit Omaha Beach to see where the invasion of Normandy took place. Then I would go to Spain, just because it has always been a place I wanted to go. Next I would go to Greece to see where the battle of Thermopylae took place. Last, I would visit France again to see where the battle of Belleau Wood took place. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | That anything is possible if they have the determination and discipline to see it through. |
