Tell us a little about your cav days.

I drove for the supply officer. Good friends with Paul Robinson (Commanding Officer's Driver). Traveled with others throughout Europe. Spent most of my time in a different state of consciousness. Tore up my pay check and told Sargent Vaugn "I quit." He put up with my antics for about a week - had to go to Nuremberg to get a new check (pay voucher). Stopped at Willy's to get one of his great homemade sandwiches, he loved our money because it was real silver! So much more. Went to see the Stones in Munich.

Tell us a little about you now.

Small business owner, married (second) with six boys, ages 8 to 35. Three grand children. Got a BA from Stonehill College in 1984. Studied theology there. Favorite authors: Tolstoy, Victor Hugo, Noam Chomsky and Howard Zinn. Things change guys and so do people! Interests: Camping, fishing,kayaking, beekeeping, and football (Patriots). Traveled with the team (New England) in 84 and 85. I befriended many alumni and now a active participant in (Patriots) alumni events. Went fishing with John Hanna (HOF) back in June.
