Gary's Story
Life
Living in Las Vegas since 1990, I'm single/widowed, had a relationship for 25 years. Retired from Converse Consultants in April 2008. Enjoy traveling, parties, rodeos, bowling. Hope to hear from anyone from Verdugo, boy what a great time that was, and living in California with the best weather, what a place to grow-up in. I do miss California, Nevada is different and I've made alot of friends.
After Verdugo I went to Glendale College for awhile, then got drafted. Went in the Army, a year at Ft. Riley Kansas, then off to Vietnam in the year 1967. Was in the 9th Inf. 4th 47th at Dong Tam in the Mekong Delta. Made it...Expand for more
back safely. Lived in Santa Monica, Wilshire West, Fullerton, CA before moving to Las Vegas. Lost my partner of many years in 1999.
As for the future, love to travel and plan on doing alot.
Military
Well I got drafted in May 1966. Went to Ft. Riley Kansas from California. Being from Calif. of course I was gay. Which I was and didn't know it. Boot camp was with the 9th Inf. Division, 2nd Brig., 4 of the 47th, Company C, 1st Patoon. We were so green behind the ears. Made it thru boot camp, later was moved over to "E" Company, Support Unit, 4.2 Morters. On to Vietnam, January 1967. Will come back later to finish.
