More history...

K did his tech school training in Florida, then got stationed in Ft Huachuca (sp?) in Arizona. Teresa joined him there and was soon pg with his daughter T. He told me lots of crazy stories of things that happened while stationed there. The most disturbing one was about some mom-and-pop store owner that K robbed, then buried the body in several places out in the desert. I believe some version of that story really happened, which then just made me even more scared of him.

While he was stationed there in AZ, he got TDY (temporary duty) orders to Panama. For some reason, he was called to do phone installation work, which was his old job in the Marines??? Whatever. He partied his butt off there! Drugs were cheap and so were the women. He even frequented an area called Hollywood, which was off limits to military personel, sort of a shanty town.

When he got back to AZ, he really wanted out of the service, so he had Teresa "leave him" and go back east. That left him a single parent, which was an out with an honorable discharge. I'm not sure of the details after the Army discharge -- Teresa left him for real (she had full custody of T), he had several girlfriends, spent some time in jail, yadda yadda, met Wendy, then met me.

Now back to the story...
