Reflections on MSgt Capone's
US Air Force Service
|
|
|
PLEASE DESCRIBE WHO OR WHAT INFLUENCED YOUR DECISION TO JOIN THE AIR FORCE.
| BC-123K Airdrop |
The decision join the USAF is the unconscious telling me that school is over, summer is gone and it is time to move on with maturing. The direction was unknown. The USAF recruiter sign was seen during my high school days and that was it. No assistance required. Never looked back! 02OCT1956 until 31May1979. Airman Basic to Master Sergeant. Aircraft Loadmaster.
