Occupation: Retired
Comment: Life Support Specialist AF. NKP April 72-Nov 72. Support duties at NKP, survival skills instructor at DANang. I am Ron's widow and will attempt to fill in as much as I can. Ron died July 2017 and I am attempting to complete a promise I made to him, to finish his VA claim. Loved the Air Force and all the guys he worked with, his job. He retired in 1984, went to work for Tx Legislative Council and built their automation system, where he had 20 employees working 3 shifts. The system is still in place today. He retired from the state in 1995, his health was starting to really go down.  Anyone out there that might have worked with or known him during 1972, please contact me.  I would love to meet anyone that he worked with and perhaps learn more about his time in SEA.  He did not talk about it much.  GOD Bless you all.
