What You’ll Find Here
THE Tech Voyager is a place for real-world technology, projects, troubleshooting, and digital workflows documented through actual experience.
After years working around technology, I’ve learned that the best solutions are usually the practical ones—the things that actually work in everyday life, not just in theory.
📚 Published Memoir
A first-person memoir of Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS), Team Week, and the lessons learned from pursuing a difficult goal.
In August 1990, Specialist Michael Johnstone arrived at Camp Mackall to attend Special Forces Assessment and Selection. Within hours, normal Army life disappeared. A roster number replaced a name. A 65-pound rucksack became a constant companion. Every day brought a new test of endurance.
Now available as an audiobook, Kindle eBook, paperback, and the Complete Digital Bundle.
