        Don't know how I could have missed this back in November. Thanks to Roy for bringing it back. Great bunch of guys. I'm proud to a member of the Society and a former Military as well. What a fraternity!

        Father: U.S. Army (bought out during depression)
        Two Older Brothers: USNR (both 4F'd)
        Twin Sons: U.S Air Force Pilots incl. one Head Eval. pilot of AC-130's Bosnia & Kosovo (both currently Captains w/JetBlue)

                    I also mised this thread. US Army 1962-4; personnel specialist (pay), first for "Detachment One", Ft Gordon GA; "Detachment One" was for ALL DESERTERS apprehended in the Third Army area (Gordon had a nice stockade, used for ****s in WWII) pay vouchers that give it to them on the left side of the form and take it away on the right side of the form.

                    Next payroll assignment was Hqs Eighth Army/Uniited Nations Command, Yongsan Compound, Seoul Korea as the OFFICER'S PAY clerk. Had to go to Seoul from Ascom (reception depot) and INTERVIEW for the assignment; hired by CWO-W4 Glenn L Jones (at the time one of two special forces qualified CWOs in the army - pre-helocopter); 11 generals, 107 bird colonels, 123 LCols, 87 Majors and 23 "other" - captains and Lts.
                    "Detachment One" served me well - I'd see nothing in Yongsan that I had not already seen.

                        Gary, reading your post I see your father was in New Guinea, which is also where my father was during WWII. Wonder if they knew each other. Very cool to see this thread pop back up.
