E-Books →Marvin Larson's Memoirs

His new life as a new boy in town was then taking place. His future was determined by how he looked at the past. To make friends and be respected Marvin always stuck by telling no lies and always sticking with the truth.
In his later years, he went to work at a silver mine called the Sunshine Mine. As he became a maintenance electrician, and had to cover the whole mine. He'd been in places and seen things that most people would have nightmares about. He was in the area where the fire started on the night shift before it happened and saw what started it that killed ninety-one men.
One of the most intelligent men Marvin ever met was an officer in the SEAL Team in the US Navy. His name was Mark Shaw and he was also his neighbor. After Marvin was befriended by Mark, he was asked to do some work for him. For about twenty years, Marvin did numerous jobs for Mark: some he is at liberty to write about, but others were confidential government jobs. Mark and his Navy SEAL friends taught Marvin how to become a diver and what to do and what not to do in the water. Most of his work was underwater. Water where you could only see about six inches with a good flashlight, and the water temperature never got over 50 degrees. They made equipment for all the SEAL teams and tested and designed them other equipment. Marvin said being able to talk and work with ex-SEALs was one of the most impressive jobs he have ever had. Mark Shaw died at the age of sixty-four.
