Official Autobiography of the EQNEEDF
From my birth in Sacramento, California, when my father named me Bruce Wayne Henion, Batman as my nickname, to my 5th year of age, Galt, California was home until my family moved to Marion, Oregon where we lived for several years, prior to moving back to Galt, California until the fourth grade, when we moved to Tehachapi and then Bakersfield before returning to Jefferson, Oregon where my father’s fathers farm was located. From the 6th grade forward and until present short 5 ½ years in the Navy, a year in Texas and a year in San Francisco/San Jose after my discharge February 1983, Jefferson, Oregon has been my home residence. In the last eleven years I have spent 7 years at different intervals in La Mission BA JA Mexico where I’m presently living with friends who are caring for me as care attendants with pay as I am a C5/C6 QUAD of 22-years due to a construction accident that resulted in February 1985 a broken neck when I fail from a roof on a cold winter day. My life has been devoted to understanding my plight and the reason for my very existence.
From the age of 14, my father taught me the construction trade and cousins and grandfather taught me the secrets of farming. By the age of 18, I was a journeyman carpenter and could operate tractors, backhoes & trucks. As a construction estimator, blue print reader and building designer, I’ve worked with my father who has built over 500 homes and manufactured, farm use and commercial buildings.
Rather then writing fiction stories I chose 21-years ago to study and learn about our environment, natural resources and renewable energy technologies. In the last ten years I’ve expanded my research to include trucking issues/NAFTA and PCD’S.
In the last seven years thus far of my life, I have learned to design web sites/forums and have been researching and writing the USS Coral Sea (CV-43) History and as well, the history of all aircraft carrier’s published under the titles of U. S. Aircraft Carriers History ( http://www.uscarrierhistory.com ). As of the beginning of college at Phoenix University April 15, 2008, eleven of 17 books are published, the remaining by the end of the year. Overhaul, my knowledge of U. S. Aircraft Carriers is much greater then when I was in the U. S. Navy, having had the opportunity to research the history of the U. S. Navy’s Fleet of Aircraft Carriers from 1922 to present.
Past activities have included operating as an owner a small Mechanic, Body and Paint Shop and Small Long Haul Trucking Business, working with NuWest Commodities Exchange and have in the past been an agent for Transportation Unlimited, Bend, Oregon and Valley Transportation, Milwaukee, Oregon locating trucks for loads. I have also independently dispatched other trucking business trucks from 1999 to 2002 and from 2000 to 2002, served as the Executive Assistant for Chairman and President of Sun Rivers Investment, Inc., Idaho and American Modular Systems International (AMSI), Jefferson, Oregon, Chairman and President Sam Sarich. Publication of The Magnificence of the Treasure Valley and Growth of Ada and Canyon County of Idaho and A Planned Community District or Municipality known as Montebello; illustrates one of the largest proposed Planned Communities in Idaho as of 2002.
Present activities include Designing Steel Homs serving as the CEO/President of both New Home Generation, Inc. and Energy Equest National Energy Efficient Development, Inc. (EQNEED) (http://www.eqneedsinc.com ) publishing books on U. S. Navy Aircraft Carriers.
As the EQNEED Founder, in the last 25-years I have written many books on the Environment and Natural Resources, Renewable Energy Technologies, Planned Community Districts, Trucking issues and Energy Quest. The California Energy Commission uses my book name “Energy Quest.” I wrote my first two books when I was in the U. S. Navy in 1980 and 1982.
Serving onboard an aircraft carrier for 3 ½ years, from December 1971 to August 1981, I obtained my GED (Actually received a Jefferson High School Diploma to my surprise), the rank of E-4 and Student Pilots license, serving first in the Deck Department and then in the Operations Department as the Departmental Yoeman, where my duties ranged from typing top secret manuals to Officer FITREP’s and Enlisted Evaluations to Letter of Instructions, messages and assisting in the management of the OPRDER during Operation Evening Light and Operation Eagle Claw April 1980.
Reenlisting in September 1980, the Chief of Naval Personnel assigned me to the Naval Amphibious School (NAVPHIBSCOL); where I was assigned to the Naval Special Warfare Training Department (NSWTD or (BUDS/SEALS), Naval Amphibious Base, Coronado, San Diego, California on 5 October 1981. While assigned to NSWTD I was encouraged to run and swim with the students and instructors, during which time I wrote, typed and published Energy Quest Political and Economic Rights. I had recently finished my second book, Energy Quest Political and Economic Rights and was awaiting entrance into the SEALS when I was given a choice by Captain William’s, CO, NAVPHIBSCOL, co-sponsored by Captain Conley, Director Human Resource Management Training Department (HRMTD), NAVPHIBSCOL, to either join the SEALS or become the Administrative Assistant of HRMTD; with the responsibility of editing all curriculum submitted by instructors to Captain Conley prior to teaching Leadership Management Education and Training curriculum to Commanders and below.
Accompanied with this position, I would be frocked to Petty Officer E-5 on 16 June 1982 and allowed to publish Energy Quest Political and Economic Rights. One of the NAVPHIBSCOL civilian secretaries was typing final drafts on EQ and everyone knew it.
I accepted the position of HRMTD Administrative Assistant and published EQ Political and Economic Rights.
When the Navy Petty Officer Introduction Course for E-4 Petty Officer’s was ordered published by the Chief of Naval Operations, Tomas B. Hayward; Captain Conley made sure I attended the first Navy Petty Officer Introduction for E-4 Petty Officer’s training course lasting several weeks.
My life is difficult. A major challenge has been to maintain my health through therapy, exercise and diet. My belief in our Lord Jesus Christ and the Almighty gives me peace and comfort.
My family from the beginning to now, have and will forever, believe all men and women were created equal under YAHWEA (GOD/LORD –YHVH – ADONAI – YAHOVAH – JAHOVAH).
When I die my knowledge of the world will go with me, yet I like to think that those who received my publications receive some benefit. My existence remembered by family, friends and our Lord Jesus Christ. I shall remain alive as long as our Lord Jesus Christ deems it necessary. Having been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Syringomyelia in 1997, I have already out lived the two years of life I was given by several Doctors. I know my luck won’t last forever or should I say, one day my usefulness will be at an end. Completely up to our Lord Jesus Christ and GOD the Father. I can only pray I’ll be worthily of the Kingdom of GOD.
Very Respectfully, BRUCE WAYNE HENION
