My dad was the guy that spotted the 1st missile site being built in Cuba in Oct. 1962. For this he was sent to Alaska in 1966 instead of Vietnam, I am grateful for this.
Best of luck with your new treatment & be careful with "chemical studies"

I need to comment ..
there is no judgement on .. value of service ..
you served .. and deserve to be recognized ..
especially by ~yourself~ .. so stand proudly please!
and we all owe your dad a debt .. I lived thru those days .. and am grateful he was sent to Alaska (flying U-2's out of there wasn't a piece of cake as you well know) ..
as for the chem studies .. 1 down and 2 to go ..
Boxster comes after all is done .. end of September ..
btw .. I was almost a marine .. when drafted we stood in line and counted off odd/even ..
odd balls went to the army ..
