Stepping Stones: The Army Years, 1960-1962

We travel through life stepping from stone to stone. Always we hope that we will not slip into the water, the mud, or worse. There are people ahead and behind us, as we walk through our life. Some help, some hinder. Each decision we make is a step toward a new stone. Here in these pages are some of the stones I stepped on during my life while in the Army – 1960-1962. I do not attempt to discuss the major events of that era. Rather, I try to show what life in the Army was like for the average enlisted man.
