Directorate of Emergency Services, Fire Prevention and Protection Division.
            I proudly protected our AOG soldier and civilian communities at the

            Aberdeen and Edgewood Areas with top notch fire suppression and fire
            prevention services.


            My Federal career began in March 1983 and ended in December 2011.  I
            received the Department of Army Civilian Achievement Award twice, several
            suggestion awards and many letters of appreciation.  I think that my largest
            contribution was the development, design and maintenance of our APG

            Aberdeen and Edgewood Area Map Books for emergency responses and the
            establishment of pre-fire plans for our high-hazard structures.  I continued to
            work on those initiatives until the day of my retirement.



            I am David L. Viets, a 20-year Veteran of the United States Air Force and a
            retiree from the Department of Defense.  I retired from the Defense
            Intelligence Agency (DIA) in Washington, D.C., in 2008 after 22 years.  I

            served as a human resource manager and training officer for the Defense
            Attaché System.  I developed training schedules for Defense attachés who
            would be stationed at U.S. embassies throughout the world.  I provided

            briefings to top management of DIA, the Defense Department, the Military
            Services, and other agencies.  I coordinated language training for the Attaché s
            and their staffs.


            Before my civilian career at DIA, I served as a training NCO in the Air Force.
            My assignments included tours at Michigan Air Force Station; Hamilton AFB,
            California; McChord Air Force Base, Washington; and Griffiss Air Force

            Base, New York.  At each of these assignments I ensured that Air Force
            personnel were current on their on-the-job training and physical training, and
            that they were in compliance with physical standards.  From 1970 to 1971, I

            served at Phu Cat Air Base in Vietnam.  I am a proud member of the Veterans
            of Foreign Wars, the American Legion, and American Veterans.  My education
            includes: Master of Arts in Management and Supervision from Central
            Michigan University; Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from

            New School, Rome, New York, and an Associate of Applied Science in
            Instructional Methodology from the Community College of the Air Force.



            I am Charles Ware and I served in the Department of Defense, Army Materiel
            Command, Harry Diamond Laboratories.  I was a Nuclear Reactor Operator
            engaged in testing electronic components and circuits for radiation hardening.
