William's Story
I still live in East Wenatchee. I still work for the Forest Service, but I am currently on a detail as an USDA Ag. Advisor to a Provincial Reconstruction Team in Afghanistan. I'm working in Eastern Afghanistan, right next to the Pakistani border. I am embedded in a military unit that is helping the Afghans to reconstruct their country. Cam home at the end of 2007.
Retired from Forest Service in 2008. Went back to Afghanistan in 2009 with the Foriegn Ag. Service. Did not stay too long this time. Too many IED's and RPG's missing the MRAP I was in. Decided it was time to come home.

nth back in Indiana as a consultant with the McKellar Corp at the Muscatatuck Urban Training Complex.
My son graduated from the University of Washington. My daughter is a senor at Eastmont HS. Continues to do her class in running start at the Community College.
My wife, Janet is still teaching as a 1st grade teacher. All is well and have no complaints. The cup has always been half full, not half emply.
Sorry I can not make the upcoming 40th reunion. I will be in Indiana traing folks to go to Afghanistan.
Waiting on my clearance to go back to Afghanistan again. This time I will be working with the US Agency for International development.
