Bio
When I turned 18 years old I joined the US Army July 8, 1960 in Jacksonville, FL and I was immediately sent to Ft. Jackson for Basic Training. After 8 or 9 weeks I graduated Basic and I was sent to Ft. Benning to mechanic school. Graduated sometime the middle of December, 1960. Again, they sent me to NY to board a ship for Germany where I was assigned to the 66th Trans. Co. June 1963 I left to NY.
Military Experiences
Jan 1960 - Jun 1963
Parts Specialist
