    I was born in 1925. As a tot, I grew up in the Rockaways, Jamaica Bay, separating me from Kennedy Airport. I became a marble champ before moving to Brooklyn. In high school I learned the skills of machinist. I was drafted in 1943. Until 1946, I served in the Navy, and the machinist training helped me with my duties aboard ship. While attending a ship’s reunion, I penned a poem entitled “The John M. Bermingham D.E. 530.” That poem became a hit. I continued to phrase words, and I am still at it. This is my third published work. When I lost the tip of my ring finger at age 21, I was disqualified for the New York City Fireman’s job. I had a fishing station, where boats were rented, for a short while, but I eventually became a police officer for the Port of NY NJ Authority, and retired in 1973. In 1951, I married Martha Bachman, and we had five children together. In 1955, I moved to New Jersey. In 1963, I stopped smoking and took up motorcycle riding. During my tenure as a police officer, I was becoming a proficient archer, and opened a pro shop with archery shooting lanes when I retired from the Port Authority. I quit the archer shop in 1980, and became a security guard at Rutgers University in New Jersey. In 1990, I retired again at the age of 65, and moved to Pennsylvania. I continued to write, and I am still at it. In 2007, while under treatment for a curable cancer, an internal artery broke. It took fifteen units of blood to bring me back. I felt the Lord let me live so that I could get my thoughts in print. On February 2, 2008, I moved to Missouri to be close to my daughter, son-in-law and grandkids, after being in an out of hospitals and rest homes. I have been doing well in Missouri, and hope you enjoy the happenings that are enclosed. Sincerely, Hal Gartner
