Doug got sober in 1980 via treatment in the Navy. He was a blackout drinker from his first drink and he started drinking at 15. Being career military, he still suffered from what so many of we alcoholics do: "Don't tell me what to do!" Doug's spiritual awakening was of the educational variety.

Doug's home group is Summit Fellowship Men's group in Greensboro, NC.
