I served 10 plus years in the US Army, the first three in the Infantry, 25th Infantry Division, 1/14th Golden Dragons, Hawaii, the other seven years were in the Finance field, in Vicenza Italy. Between that, I was stationed at Ft. Harrison, IN where I was fortunate enough to be on the post Honor Guard. I served 18 months with that position while performing in 75 plus burials of service members.

Jul 1977

New Zealand Army

I was the only supply personnel to get to go to New Zealand in a troop switch for 21 days. I issued the gear that the NZ Army had for us to use. We did a lot of maneuvers during the 21 days. I insured that our troops got their chow. I loved it, I drove a vehicle with the steering wheel on the right side. It was crazy!
