Louis's Story
Life
Only spent 1 year at Lew-Port. From divorced parents I spent 10th and 11th grade at NFHS. Mom got custody and I moved to Youngstown in time to start senior year. As happy for me as it was for you! I didn't know many of you, not many of you knew me. Ran cross-country, studied hard, but knew I was going into the Army. Graduated, like you in June 1969. How can one say I had a good time with the girls I went out with without making it sound "vulgar". I wasn't that kind of guy and they weren't that kind of girls. (If they read this they know who they are, and we did have good times!!)Anyhow, became an Army paratrooper medic and went to Nam before I was 19. Spent the next 26 years in the Army, most of it in the Special Forces (Green Berets you hear alot about today). Did all the big games of our time, Viet Nam, Grenada, Panama the Desert.. Final assignment was on the Joint Staff at the Pentagon as a Special Forces Operations Sergeant Major. Retired in 97, currently live wit...Expand for more
h my wife (Donna Miller of Niagara Falls) of 30 years (in Aug 02)in Woodbridge, Virginia which is convenient to my job as a counter terrorism specialist for a governmental department in Washington D.C. (the Capital of the World). We are the proud parents of two daugthers (one a Sergeant in the United States Army and the other a student where her Dad attends college)and three grand-children (2 girls ((9/2)) and one boy 6 months). I will get my BA in Business in a year, but that is just to show my grandkids and nephews and nieces one should never quit. Did any of you ever try to have a class reunion. I read the papers each year, even called the school the big times (you know, 10, 20, 30 years) I would have but I was a little busy, usually ducking bullets but heard nothing. Well I hope you life is going well, I see one of our classmates lives near me...A VP in a dot com...now that has to be fun!! You have my address and I'm in the book....Louis P. Palm, Woodbridge Virginia, Jan 02.
