My father was an infantryman who was wounded in the Battle of the Bulge at
Bastogne. He was treated at a hospital in the USA and then went to the
Pacific Theater. He ended up staying in the service after World War II and
retired from the Army.

My mother was a glass blower in New Jersey. She made glass cylinders used
to make radio tubes.

My brother and I were both career Army; my older sister married an Air Force
guy and my younger sister married a Coast Guard guy.
