Last duty and discharge at Co H MarSuptBn, Homestead AFB 69/70. Personal Quote: Hobbies: News: Retired and living the quiet life. Wondering if any of the Badgleys above were in Danang in 68-69. He was a good friend of LCpl Mahia. Badgley worked for me in Danang. Also looking for then Sgt Lucas during same period in Danang. How about GySgt Cronk. Last heard from him when he was in Adak. How about Maj. Griggs - language school together and he wound up plotting B52 drops from working spaces below 1st Rad in DaNang. Also looking for Sgt Lucas. We shared duties and fridge in DaNang. |
