Bio

I'm Ron Sinclair. I was born in North Carolina. I grew up around the military (Army brat). My father was in the Army before I was born and recently retired as a Command Sergeant Major (CSM) with 30 years in service. In fact, we participated in Desert Shield/Desert Storm in the same major command (1st COSCOM). We were also stationed at Fort Bragg together in that same major command. Currently, my family and I live in Northern Virginia.

I'm heavily into cars and call myself a backyard mechanic. I've owned a few nice sportscars which you can read about here. I've also owned a few motorcycles, which can be seen here.

I love computers. I more-than-dabble in Linux, build my own computers, and am decently literate in a few computer languages, which you can read about on my hobbies page.

This is my family. I've a wife and two daughters, with a son on the way!

My wife is a Sergeant First Class in the U.S. Army.

This is my wife and I.

This is my daughter. Here's another ph oto of my daughter. She's around a year old in this picture.

This is my daugher with her grandmother and great-grandmother (my inlaws). This picture is when my wife was graduating from ANCOC (Advanced Non-Commissioned Officer Course). I traveled to the U.S. from Japan with Taylor and only ONE seat on the plane to see my wife graduate. My inlaws attended the graduation. This was actually only the second time my daughter had seen a relative (my mom-in-law met us at LAX beforehand).

This is my daughter (on the left, near my knee) with my father and her cousin (my sister's son). This is the first time my daughter saw my family. What a riot! Took her a long time to get used to them!

I have an extensive employment background in military matters. After graduating from Westover Senior High School, I enlisted in the United States Army:

In June of 1986, I enlisted as a 55G, also known as a Nuclear Weapons Maintenance Specialist. I was sent to Fort Carson, Colorado after finishing the training course. At Fort Carson (at the Nuclear Weapons Support Branch), I trained National Guard and Reserve artillery units in prepping various artillery munitions for nuclear fire missions. I achieved the rank of Specialist/E4.
I had the chance to change my specialty so I re-enlisted and opted for 96B, which is Intelligence Analysis. From 1989 to 1995, I performed various intelligence tasks, ranging from Division-level to Battalion-level units. At Camp Casey, South Korea, I was assigned to G2, 2nd Infantry Division as an analyst in Plans. I was then moved to the All-Source Production Section as the North Korean Air Force/Air Defence Artillery analyst. Afterward, I participated in Desert Shield/Desert Storm as an intelligence analyst in 1st COSCOM G2. After Saudi, I was promoted to Corporal and was in charge of the PSI (Personnel Security Investigations) Section of 1st COSCOM G2. A month later I made Sergeant/E5. 2 months later, I was transferred to 264th Corps Support Battalion of 1st COSCOM and worked as the S2 Intelligence NCOIC. While there, I participated in the Hurricane Andrew cleanup and actually did intelligence functions. I attended BNCOC (Basic Non-Commissioned Officer Course) and shortly after, was moved to 530th Supply and Services Battalion of 1st COSCOM, where I was again the Battalion S2 intelligence NCOIC. A week after I arrived, I was sent to Haiti and participated in Operation Uphold Democracy. A year later, October 1995, I terminated my career as a soldier.

Here is my medal trove. All my medals and ribbons are displayed in a very nice box that my wife had made for me. She even attached an engraved placard inside!

I am always open-minded about employment. This is an HTML version of my resume, which may be old or the link non-functional. An MSWord version is here.
