“My combined military and civilian flying eventually got me to every continent in the world. After the military, I continued civilian flying with several airlines and an aircraft manufacturer in aircraft ranging from twin turboprops to a heavy DC-10 Freighter.

My fondest memories, however, start from the first solo Hun “D” ride to my last combat ride at Phan Rang, and my most pleasurable achievement was winning the Top gun Award at Luke.”
