This veteran honorably executed his duties to his country from February 1952 to February 1956.

He spent in excess of three years in sea duty and attained the rank of ET 3rd class. He was awarded the National Defense Sevice Medal and the Good Conduct Medal.

He earned a BA degree in engineering and worked for the ETO Corporation as a head engineer.
