A Veteran Comments on OCW

ocw

My name is Victor Trinidad and I am a retired Navy Chief Petty Officer who served his country for over 23 years. I currently work as a Systems\Network Administrator overseas. I strongly support the Occupy Wall Street Movement and I only wish I could be with them protesting in my home city of New York. Although I am not with them on the street, I have done my very best to spread the word about the movement by e-mailing my friends and family and encouraging them to join the movement.
