Welcome!!
I'm Kevin Schiele, the Director of Technology at Imec, a print, publishing, prepress, online internet warehouse for marketing material company. My staff and I keep all the file servers, network, web servers, firewalls, etc. running. We built a site for customers to house digital assets and create one to one, variable data, print on demand marketing materials based off templates called My Marketing. We do it all. That's what I do, not who I am. This is my online pressure relief valve. I'm my own boss here so I get to code away here just making it up as I go. Fun sometimes.
I wanted my site to have a patriotic look. Some of the pictures across the top right include the 101st Airborne Monument in Ft. Campbell, KY and an aerial view of the cemetery overlooking Omaha Beach in France. You can see the beach in the top left corner. 9,387 U.S. service men and women are buried there. A partial payment to the price of freedom. I also included legends Gen. George Patton & Gen. "Chesty" Puller. Two great American military heroes. Also, the greatest American President of my generation at least, Ronald Reagan.
I also added a cool javascript feature that moves an image across the screen. If you click the image of the F-16 Thunderbird just below the American Flag in the top left corner, you'll get to pick from two F22A Raptors, four Blue Angels or 4 Thunderbirds and get a fly-by. You'll hear them coming, they'll fly across the screen and the window will shake afterwards. If you're tab browsing the shaking will only work if it's the only tab in the window. You can click the Thunderbird on any page to get another fly-by later.
Anyway, my site's grown from a couple of pages to my own Fantasy Racing game that I designed from scratch. Then in 2006 I became involved with the Patriot Guard and wanted to devote an area to tell whoever wants to read my experiences attending fallen soldiers funerals and paying respect and honor to them. I am keeping a log of my activities. I also have a photo gallery with a couple of the missions. If you are interested in reading a first hand account of what happens when we attend a service, then click here to see mine
Remember Our Heroes and Support Our Troops
I was brought up learning about military history. My dad served 24 years active duty in the Army. We watched lots of movies that told the basically true stories of past battles in many wars. My dad and I would watch them every time they came on. No VCRs or DVDs then. It was still cool to be a proud Flag waving American. I don't see as much of that anymore. I know as much as most non-Vet American citizens. If I can make one person prouder of our troops and want to find a way to directly help them, then I'll be happy. We should be proud and supportive of our Veterans.
June 6th is always an important day to me. The D-Day anniversary.One of my uncles, R.H. Schiele, participated in the D-Day landings on the coast of France in 1944. I always think of him on that day. What it must have been like that morning. The courage it took to fight for freedom. According to some estimations, 150,000 troops stormed Normandy beaches. About 2,500 GI's died on the beaches and 2,600 paratroopers died behind enemy lines. We must never forget that Freedom Isn't Free. In my Patriot section I have a page that lists all the major battles with casualty statistics since WWII. I learned a lot as I put it together, I bet you will to. Support the men and women of our military, they are paying the price for us. Thanks to all our veterans, past & present.
Fallen Coalition Heroes
Please visit this site that honors all the coalition troops that have given their all in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Don't forget these heroes and their families. Everyone needs to find a way to actively show their support. Who knows, it may spread.
