I was then offered to train as a Barge engineer 3(apprentice ) for a few years, made it to a 2 and then a 1 which meant I was then in charge of the rig on moving operations as it was my job to operate all electro hydraulic systems..

Worked all over the world , and with the money bought myself a business.

Life is what you make it.
Great story .
A marine does that mean you were an elite soldier are you still living in London
