Winford's Story
College
The first two years of college were in night school at UGA, while in the Air Force in GA. The only memories were Air Force during the day and school at night. The weekends did have a lot of pleasant memories. There was the First (and only) Annual Atlanta Rock Festival, held a year after Woodstock. The festival was held just outside Warner Robins, GA and we went out there at nights during the festival. It was supposedly as large as Woodstock, but in the deep south it didn't get the publicity.

GA, transferred to VCU and grad in '74. Worked in banking for the next 25 yrs and joined the Army Reserves in '78. Commissioned in Army in '82 as an MP Officer, and was activated in '87-88 at Ft McClellan, AL.
Left banking for 1 1/2 yrs in 2000-01, and came back in 2001 to First Union (Wachovia). In 2006, I was mobilized and sent to Iraq on a MITT Team, imbedded with the Iraqi Army. Our team of 11 travelled to Ramadi, Karbala, Hindiyah and Diwaniyah. Returned to the states in late summer '07 and have been on Active Duty with Army ever since. Will return to banking later this year.
