James Mike's Story

greetings! I'm James Callahan but have always gone by my middle name "Mike". This has caused much confusion in my school days. Many entries in my annuals start with "whoever you are..." After graduation my twin brother John and I went into the military. College was not an option at the time, It's a good thing too. 4 years of seeing the world and meeting many people, really helped me grow up a bit more, I spent a year in Massachusetts learning morse code, 18 months in Viet Nam, also tours in Virginia and Germany. I recently retired after 34 years as a graphic artist and now am living a blissful life, still in Seattle with my newly wedded spouse Ron Welch of 40 years. I love Classical music more than anything.

three dogs and traveling to Europe. My dear brother and I communicate virtually every day. We often spend a day or two just remembering I cherish my memories of my 4 years in the army. Enlisting was one of the best decisions I've made. Especially in Viet nam, Davis station and Bien Hoa. I also fell in love for the first time. It was a rip-snorting adventure, and I was lucky to come home. In Sept. 1969 I began graphic arts school. I could always draw very well so i know that's where I'd make my living. Got a job right away with "Metro" drawing lovely pictures of buses and sewers. But they were gorgeous!. After 34 years I had a very good pension to fall back on so I got out to live the life of Riley. If you remember me, please say hello Classmates i'd love to see again are Bill Lunde, Mike Houston, both '64 grads. Fellow soldiers I'd love to talk to again : Richard Dalsbo, Richard Power, Greg Brent
