JB Frost
I grew up in
mid Michigan in a General Motors town called Saginaw. I was one of four
children in my family. My parents were not rich, but they gave us all the
bare essential of life. Soon after graduating from High school, I went to
work for General Motors. I had one-year service at GM when I got my draft
papers for the military. I was shipped to Fort Knox, Kentucky for my basic
and then straight to Fort Polk, Louisiana for more training. When the New
Year rolled around in 1967, I had my orders from the Army that I would be
sent to Vietnam. I was still only 19 years old when I arrived to Charlie
Company 2/22 Infantry 25th Division, later changed to the 4th
Division. Serving one-year tour in Vietnam changed me forever and gave me
a better appreciation for life.
My
wife Jill and I have been married for 35 years and have two children. A
son Ryan and daughter Rebecca. Going back to General Motors after my
discharge from the Army, I retired in 1997 with 32 years of service. My
hobbies are woodworking, and for recreation I enjoy bicycling and golf. I
also serve as a military locator for the 22nd Infantry group.

Mike
Groves was a handsome young man and.... |
He
turned into an elegant middle age gentleman. |
Clark
Lohman sure looks like lean, mean fighting machine in Nam. He sure
had his share of action and he is one of those guys that the rest of us,
especially those that didn't serve, should be thankful to. |
This
citizen warrior sure looks happy with his wife of 38 years Barbara and his
granddaughter Katie. Clark, hope to have a few cold ones with you in
Kansas City. |
Dennis
Luiz i n Nam, he was 20 years old in this photo. Dennis served in Nam
from September 68 to September 69. He was with A company and he
saved his platoon leader, Lt. Nash, and his RTO "Lumpy" lives
during a fire fight. Dennis stayed in the military and served Ft.
Ord, CA, Germany, Hawaii, Ft. Stewart, GA and Ft. Lewis, WA. He has
three daughters, two of them born in Germany and one in Georgia. In
1970 Dennis broke his wrist and couldn't be in the Infantry any longer, so
he became a mechanic. Dennis is now retired, prematurely, due to a
heart condition. He says he is taking care of himself.
Dennis met his wife Pennie in High School and married her after basic
and AIT in 1968. They live in Lakewood, WA.

Jerry
Pierce in Dau Tieng. His friend Clark Lohman tells me that he is a
very tall man. I am glad you made it back Jerry, you sure made a big
target. |

Jerry
and Renee. They dress like this everyday. |

Mike Pounds put
himself back in the past cybernetically. You can see why the
straight legs were jealous of us and the stuff we carried.

Irene
(the pretty one) has been married to the hunk to her right for 30+ years
(she should get a presidential citation for valor). Mario smiles
because he knows he has been extremely lucky and has it "real
good." |
