I graduated in January and headed straight off to Basic Training for the Army Reserve. I served with C Det. 389th Eng. Co. in Muscatine for 2 years.

y(more or less) married ever since. Gail and I have 2 children, Samantha, 21 and Perry, 16. Since leaving Active Duty in 85', I bounced around from one job to another till Aug. of 89 I started working for Oscar Mayer here in Davenport. I re-enlisted into the National Guard in Jan. 05 and shipped off to Iraq in Sept. 05. I was part of B Co. 1-133rd Inf. We pulled Convoy Security and did a lot of good while over there. We ended up being activated for just short of 2 full years! Longest deployed Brigade of All services. Sure is nice to be home again. We got back in late July 07.
