I graduated high school in June of 1968. I did not want to go to Vietnam so I joined the army in august of 68. I was 17 so my parents had to sign papers for me to join. My mos was door gunner when I got to fort Rucker I was able to change my mos to air traffic controller. From their I went to keelesler air force base for AIT. Then in December of 1969 I went to Vietnam till March of 1971. I spent 15 and one half months in Vietnam and a total of 3.5 years in the army.
