Delta Blue Squadron

David Spriggs, born in Scioto County, Ohio, in 1934 and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, currently spends his time as a freelance writer and poet. Since childhood, David’s love and curiosity for airplanes, space, and the undiscovered led him to join the Air Force in 1951 at the mere age of seventeen. These ten years of military service afforded him the opportunity to travel to twenty-seven countries, while specializing in the operation and maintenance of various types of aircraft. His concerns and topics in his writings focus primarily on issues such as the failing economy, government corruption, the Iraq war, and America’s progression at achieving domination of our outer space.
