Tell us about your service record please.

Were you slighted when the warrior accolades were passed out?

Bert you can read my BIO. I did my jobs and was rewarded by Chief Infantry Branch with 2 years college year round to include salary, tuition, books in May 70- May 72. There were only two other Infantry CPT’s at UNO on that same program. Both had a DSC’s. I did not have a DSC. Both were platoon leaders in units wiped out in Vietnam and both were left for dead. John Page was from West VA. He was in the IA Drang with the 1st CAV. His body was stripped and he was left for dead along with his RTO. That is a hero. He was humbled to be the first man from a coal mining town to go to college. I served with many heroes.
