I have lead a most interesting life, touched upon a few fascinating historical events and have known several significant individuals who made it possible for me to have had a successful career in the FBI, and to have led a most interesting, fortunate personal life.
I have out-lived all of my family except for a son, daughter, two grand daughters and a sister-in-law. A few years ago I discovered a diary kept by my terminally ill mother which covered my first fours years and her last four years. In discussing this material with a journalist friend, I was encouraged to 'do something with it'. Further encouragement and interest by a birthplace historical society and museum, and my children, led to my further research and interest to 'do something'.
As WW II began to wind down, I was selected to learn spoken Japanese and assigned to Army Counter-Intelligence Corps and sent to assist General MacArthur occupy Japan. Later after commissioned as an FBI Agent, I worked in Boston and nearly a quarter of a century in Washington, D.C. and twenty years in Utah. During this time my late wife a pilot, and I raced sports cars, flew aircraft, made a movie for the FBI, raised two kids and helped to put on Air Shows in Utah. Finally, being slow learners, we looked for more hills to climb and retired to our chosen Miles City, MT., where there are few hills, but a Big Sky.
I have an ex-FBI son in Santa Barbara, CA, a grand daughter who is a marine research scientist at UCLA, a daughter who is a computer guru for the Veterans Administration in Washington, D.C. and a grand daughter who is a women fashion designer in New York City. I am now a widower, and am living with a blind Maltese dog who probably knows as much as I do about what is ahead of us.lihat lebih sedikit
