Johnny's Story
Life
Been married 3 times! I have 2 daughters 26 & 28 years old! I've been divorced for 11 years and loving it. Unfortunately, I still have to work for another 5 years.
I live in the Phoenix Metro Area. I thought I'd never leave San Antonio, I probably never go back. I love it here! I would be in the San Francisco Bay Area in a second, if I could afford it. Since I left San Antonio, I've lived in Louisiana, Virginia, Vietnam, Phillipine Islands, Colorado, Missouri, Indiana, California, and here.
Drop me a line, if you think you know me. I just found my Year Book a month ago after almost 40 years!! Wow! It has been a lot time. I still recognize a lot of people in it, and remember some good times!

Military

as Drafted on January 12, 1968. Did a tour in Vietnam-Got busted to E-4 at Ft. Carson(hated KP). Put in for Drill Seargeant Academy. Was a Drill at Ft. Leonardwood, MO. for 4 long, long years. Put in for Recruiting to get out of the cold. I hated that more than the cold! I was able to stick it out. I retired as an E-8, in March 1988-Could've made E-9 easy. I made E-8 with 14 years of service. I just kept turning down being considered for Sargent Major'Academy, and for E-9. If you think there's politics in the Civilian World. They have nothing, compared to the Recruiting Command. I saw so many good soldiers get screwed, and I probably screwed some myself. I'm not proud of it.
Anyway my retirement check pays the house note!
