This is a lovely Memorial weekend tribute. One can tell at a glance that he was a distinguished man whose life was marked by achievement.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes: Army Air Corps flight instructor during World War II, Air Force reserves (after the Air Force was created), Kansas Air National Guard (chief of supply Forbes Air Force base), Fuel Allocations Officer for The Kansas Energy Office (made sure farmers got the fuel they needed). Played basketball at the University of Minnesota (center). Degree in agricultural education.
