Escape those disease-ridden larval humans! has the job you need, and conveniently enough they have just had a retirement:

Doug Hicks, deputy superintendent of the Historic Preservation Training Center, will retire on January 3rd following 37 years of federal service.

WPTC headquarters was moved to Monocacy National Battlefield near Frederick, Maryland, and renamed the Historic Preservation Training Center (HPTC) in 1995.


Heck, the guy is your neighbor. If he can commute to Monocacy so can you. :)

Everybody seems to like me, even assholes that I have nothing in common with...I think that's because I'm such a good listener, and I have a keen sense of humor. So read this as if we were already friends, because we probably would be if you found your way here. Other stuff from me here: http://combathelmets.blogspot.com http://toysoldiersforever.blogspot.com
