This bio is intended primarily for people that I know and haven't seen for many many years. This will bring you up to date as to what has been going on in my life. After graduation from High School, I attended Kansas Wesleyan University for two years. I spent the next three years in Wichita working for The Boeing Company as a technical writer. In June of 1960, I married a great gal that I had met at Kansas Wesleyan University. We have been married for 62 years. I then joined the Army, rather than being drafted, in late 1962. I did this so that I could choose my career field rather than being "selected" for a career field. I choose the missile field thinking that this would be good training for when I go back to Boeing. However, I found that washing missiles would not be much help so I transferred into communications and cryptography.

These players were in the Military, but during the football season their main job was to play football. It was fun watching the French eating popcorn and hot dogs at the games. I got out of the Army after my enlistment was up and went back to work for Boeing. Business was slow so I enlisted in the Air Force. My first assignment was in Oklahoma City. We loved it there and made a lot of good friends. But all good things have to come to an end sometime and I got my orders to go to Korea. I could not take my wife along and since my wife was pregnant with our second child it was tough, especially for her. My daughter was born while I was gone. My job was absolutely fabulous. I was chosen to work in special intelligence. The Korean assignment was for 13 months. I managed to pick up 12 hours from the University of Maryland while there. I spent much of my off duty time helping at an orphanage. That was a great experience! I was then stationed in St. Louis at The Aeronautical Chart and Information Center. The...Expand for more
