My dad went through electronics school in San Francisco after his graduation from High School (Pensacola High,
Pensacola, Florida) in 1946. It is my understanding that Dad served as a radioman for his entire career. After
his discharge from the Navy, Dad attended the University of Florida on the GI Bill and graduated with a degree
in Pharmacy; however Dad was recalled while in Pharmacy School for the Korean Conflict but was able to serve that
stint stateside. Submited by John Scott Clopton |
