USARMY 1984-1991 considered a war veteran cause of the first *BUSH* and Desert Storm 90-91.I honestly can say I would not want to be one of the soldiers that are in IRAQ now. They have my utmost respect and I wish them all a safe tour of duty and return.

If my memory serves me right :

Headquarters Company 6/327 Infantry FT. Wainwright,AK. 1984-1988

84th Chemical Company FT Polk,LA. 1988-1991

Desert Storm Jan.-Jun. 1991

US Navy 1960-1966, NOAA Corps from 1972-1991. I am still diving at age 65.

As an aside I am from the generation that burned down the administration building to open a dialog. I still love a good heated political discussion. I can’t go to knives and pistols anymore, my dive knife has a blunt tip & my powder is wet.
