Background: '86 Sheldon grad Andrea Bell-Hagberg would like to make master chief some day. For now, she serves in the informational technology department on her ship in the Persian Gulf Persian Gulf, arm of the Arabian Sea, 90,000 sq mi (233,100 sq km), between the Arabian peninsula and Iran, extending c.600 mi (970 km) from the Shatt al Arab delta to the Strait of Hormuz, which links it with the Gulf of Oman. . Bell-Hagberg, schooled in Elmira and Eugene, joined the Navy in 1987 "to serve her country, to get an education and to have a direction," says her mother, Bevely Metcalf of Eugene. She enjoys riding motorcycles and horses, and has taken up quilting quilting, form of needlework, almost always created by women, most of them anonymous, in which two layers of fabric on either side of an interlining (batting) are sewn together, usually with a pattern of back or running (quilting) stitches that hold the layers on deployment. Her husband, Shane, and their daughters, Stephani, 9, and Sarah, 7, are "keeping the home fires burning" in Marysville, Wash. "Andrea says this is a job that must be done and she is proud to be a part of it," Metcalf says. - Submit profiles to Scott Maben, 338-2365; www.registerguard.com/forms/homefrontform.html |
