The profile on me originally published by the Aberdeen Proving Ground has been published yet again—for the fourth time—this time by the Fairbanks Daily News – Miner/Alaska Post. It’s at https://www.newsminer.com/extra/alaska_post/veteran-linguist-reflects-on-vietnam-service/article_1df54db2-bc42-11ec-b066-3f138f0bdd71.html
Please let me know what you think.

When I was in the Army, I wanted to go to language school, but they sent me to High Speed Radio. Later changed to Communication, and sent to NSA. Just before I was to get out, the Army wanted me to become a Helicopter pilot, which I turned down. The rest is history.

All sounds familiar. It’s haunting that a decision made to fill a requirement—sending me to language school for Vietnamese, not Chinese—reshaped my life. Yeah, the rest is history, my history.
