Grew
up in the Village(what a wild place to grow up)! Travelled on the "E"
train everyday to the big "D", 55minutes one-way,whew!I felt
like I was traveling to the "country",ha! After graduation I
attended NYCC, at night & worked during the day.I wanted to be a Bio-Chemist?
However, I was drafted in Mar 66,(what a shock)! During that time I was
dating my "highschool sweetheart), Joanie Volklandt, a beautiful
person, (we started dating in Sophmore year). After that I spent 6 months
in Fort Campbell, Ky. & trained with the 101st Airborne/Rangers. I
shipped out to VietNam & spent 2 years in Combat! I was wounded twice
in those 2 years and was discharged from active duty a year later. Needless
to say I was really messed up physically & mentally, and went back
to school & work. I became engaged to Joanie but that ended in a bad
split-up(my fault). After I graduated college I went to work for the Government,
Dept.of the Army and Dept of State. I spent over 20 years and retired
in 1988. During those years I married and divorced, and now married again,
I have one daughter who's just turned 21 yo & is graduating from NYU.
I've moved 12 times and still looking for the right location,ha! I presently
live on the Jersey Shore with my wife & daughter!

Great, we've got our own SITE! I've moved around alot since 1964, first 2 tours in VietNam,(GOD,protected me), then 12 locations, NY & NJ! And I'm moving again! Don't know where? Probably in NJ, NYC is too expensive. Hope, we can have a reunion soon, I can't wait to see everyone! Sincerely, Manny G. |
