I've had a very eclectic career.
My primary job was as an airborne electronic sensor operator on a number of aircraft, and I know Mr. O'Toole is very familiar with them because we used to sit right beside him. I also did three years in command intelligence in Winnipeg, and in that time I was the field intelligence analyst in a number of countries.
I worked in Bosnia with the UNHCR, the United Nations humanitarian relief agency, doing airlift into Sarajevo. I was the air liaison to the French Foreign Legion in Sarajevo, doing anti-sniping work, and I went back two months later when we rebadged to IFOR. I was the air liaison to the British Army, 2nd Battalion Light Infantry, out of Banja Luka.
I was also the lead air defence weapon cantonment inspector. We were the weapons inspectors who ensured that the former warring parties had complied with the Dayton Accords. So we were the ones who actually went around and made sure all the weapons that were scattered through the country were put in places where we could monitor them. It was during that time that I became exposed to depleted uranium, because we were in the facilities doing the inspections, inside the vehicles actually struck by depleted uranium.
