John Sopher’s Summary

I received a honorable discharge from the Navy having served four years in the submarine force as a sonar technician. After which I found a job in a calibration lab, certifying and repairing industrial test equipment. I worked in the lab for nine years while I worked on an associates in business and continued on for a bachelors in finance. Along with work and school I still managed to start a businesses in rental property. Midway in the pursuit of my Bachelors, I took a hiatus to gather my bearings, and met my wonderful fiance. My fiance and I now own a vending company together and of course I now inspect homes for you.

    I was a sonar technician on a US Navy submarine, USS Cavalla SSN 684.

    Although I had many great achievements in my naval career, my greatest achievement was receiving my dolphins on the north pole. I like to say, I'm the only person in US Naval history that has received their fish at the north pole, (to my knowledge)! I haven't ever tried to research this, but I claim it because its the north pole! Out of the few who do go there, how many can say they received their fish on top of the ice a the north pole? Now that's an exciting!!!
