Dwayne's Story
Life
Just a local boy , Started in the first grade at Midland Park and finished the second there. Moved to Indiana for about eighteen months and came back to Park Circle. Was available for the first fifth
grade class at Alice Birney Ele. Was promoted to be a Warrior in 1964. Those were the days of Johhny Peret, Tommy Alexander, John
Stein and Linda Koester and Stall going to the State football game..
Guys like Amme Baker, John Rozelle, Skippy Darnell, Buster Thompson,Bobby LeRoy, Dale Pritchard and I had arrived... We all
had the same teachers-- Mr Obie, Coach Weed, Coach Biggerstaff,
Mr Henry, Granny Pope, Mrs Bridgers, Mr White, Mrs Richardson,
Mrs Garrison and the dreaded "Third Reich" for history. When you
all took your vacation before your senior year, I went to summer school to graduate early. I went to the Trident Tech for almost a year taking Chemical Eng but got a case of spring fever when you
all were putting on your caps and gowns. The Army offered to cure me of what ailed me, and off I went. Did everythng I could think of
and sdome that I ...Expand for more

air planes and shot out of subs. ASA All the Way... Went to Japan/
Okinawa for eighteen months . Came back to the states to a NSA

Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand for 13months.Two years at Fort Riley
KS with five trips to Europe for fun and games in the woods.Off for

stationed with the Special Forces , I was injured in a headon collision
and was forced out of the Army after 16years as an E-7. Bummed
around NC, SC, GA, FLA, Tenn doing construction. Built million dollar
homes but never got to live in one. Two wives later and poorer for the experience, I live near Savannah GA as a broken down old VET..
Spend most of my time watching the hummingbirds and going to the
VA hospital. Just recently got old enough to seek out people from my
past. If you are reading this, you may be a phantom from my past???
I live alone and my dog died after my last wife left so won't be no more.......
