HISTORY
I am the product of a seven generation military family from the Revolutionary War to Desert Storm. My mother [Helen K. Burrell] worked for [Rear Admiral Atherton] in Washington D.C. during WWII. She was the first
Afro-Native American to work for the League of
Nations in 1946, Lake Success, Sperry facility in Long Island

“French Resistance” to get safely behind
allied lines. He was awarded the Croix de
Guerre, Bronze Star, Purple Heart,

I rose through the ranks to commissioned officer in two years while in high school.

My handler [Mr. Popkin] coordinated classes; when finished I was speed reading 180+ wpm with 89% recall. In 1970 when Vietnam became full blown I discovered CAP [Civil Air Patrol] counted as basic training and service to the United States. I had already worked on my first major investigation FBI File #100-447935 [AIRTEL & WFO #100-46784 reports] on William Jefferson Clinton & Hillary Rodham, which started in 1969 and ongoing through March 1993.

In 1999 I traveled to the Niagara Falls area to see some native family I found in some letters to my mother. Since she was dying of cancer, having endured over 12 years including Chemotherapy and temporary remission. After arriving I consulted some history information and discovered "Walking the Ridge" a sacred Native tradition for braves to see if they were worthy to lead their people. You walk along a ridge that is only visible certain times of the year as far as your courage takes you.
In my case almost 200 feet out. I took a disposable camera to record this event and took several photos. Sadly the State Police weren't happy and took mos of the photos I had printed reminding me how dangerous it was and aside from my Native heritage I could not do this again.
I am the first Afro-Native American
child to attend the United Nations
International School [U.N.I.S.] in
Parkway Village, Queens, N.Y. from
1958 to 1960. It ended when I was hit
by a car driven by a Russian in June 1960!
My mother passed away on Memorial Day 2001 which possibly contributed to saving my life. I was working for Velocity Express out of Teterboro, New Jersey at the time and one of my runs went from Federal Reserve in Moonachie N.J. to Fedaral Reserve on Vessy Street [Back of the World Trade Center complex].
Returning from Canada after handling some matters regarding my mothers Canadian Registry I delivered phone books for Verizon in North Buffalo, Grand Island, Tonawanda, Seneca Falls and Auburn. Early afternoon on 9/ 11 I was still in Auburn, N.Y. which saved my life
First 9/ 11 Memorial
