the Korean War through his retirement in 1981. To quote the author, I will strive to take you through boot camp in San Diego, California, and the other schools I attended, as well as all the various duty station assignments from the shores of the Mainland United States and Hawaii, to the shores of Bermuda, Okinawa, the Philippines, and Vietnam, citing the promotions I received along the way. A man with great ambition, he took advantage of every opportunity for education and made continued progress up the ladder from enlisted man to officer in eleven years, ten months, and ten days, thus becoming a Navy Mustang.
