Robert Lee Thompson

I was born and raised in Indian River County Florida. I am a military retiree and proud to have served. During my tour in the U. S. Navy I spent time in Korea aboard the U.S.S. Calvert (APA-32) and did two tours of duty in Vietnam with the Navy Seabees, U.S. Naval Construction Battalion Forty (MCB-40). Other duty stations were the U.S.S. Casa Grande (LSD-13), U.S.S. Willard Keith (DD-775), U.S.S. Tidewater (AD-32), U. S. Naval Training Center, Orlando, Florida, U.S Naval Air Station, Sanford, Florida and U.S. Naval Station, Key West, Florida. These stations are not in the order in which he served. After retiring from the military I was a truck driver, a nuclear plant security officer in Saint Lucie County for fifteen years and did odd jobs while touring the United States. I am presently living in Bristol Connecticut.

I have published two novels, Riding the Florida Time Line and Riders of the Spew. The second Spew novel, Stragglers of the Spew will be out soon.
