About Me
[http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=487991 Oldsoldier2003] on the Ubuntu Community forums. [https://launchpad.net/~oldsoldier-gmail Old_Soldier] on launchpad.
I am a retired soldier and long time Debian user. My first experiences with Debian date back to 1997 when I decided to switch from Slackware to Debian for the purpose of hosting a Palace Chat server.
During that time frame I was the network administrator for a .mil network in Germany and ran the help desk for a 300 seat network located in 4 separate physical locations.
Community Involvement
Currently I am an active member of the Ubuntu Forums Beginners Team and Unanswered Posts Team. I am also active in the Launchpad Beginner Team for Ubuntu.
I have applied for the mentoring program of the the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam Ubuntu Documentation Team] in the hope of contributing more to the Community through improving the documentation and help system.
My current interests are in developing a rescue Live CD with internet access and a help system that will allow unskilled beginners to recover their systems from common "catastrophic" failures without inflicting further damage to their systems.
