I spent four years as an air traffic controller, at Luke Air Force Base west of Phoenix, Arizona. The Vietnam war was ragging at the time, but my number never came up, and I didn’t get sent to that country. I am proud to be a Vietnam era Veteran.
After my four year enlistment was over, I ended up back in Northern Utah. The commander of the local Army National Guard unit offered me a promotion to put my military experience to work for them, so I spent three more years as a communication specialist in the Army.
My years in the military taught me many life lessons, that have served me well ever since.
