Mike Moffet162 viewsRetired from the Marine Corps in 1970 due to wounds received in Vietnam. Mike and his wife just celebrated their 32nd anniversary on May 3rd, 2006. They have 5 children, 15 living grandchildren (2 deceased), 9 great-grandchildren (#10 due 7/06). He was forced to retire due to health in 2000. Considered totally disabled by the VA. Spent his years in shift management of Slot Departments in Nevada, both Reno (where he met his wife as he was her boss) and Vegas. He was at the MGM fire in 1980. He began in this industry while attending college to work in the Crime Lab as his wounds kept him from being a sworn officer. He had more fun in gaming, so he stayed.

Jack Ravin and Senator Max Cleland356 viewsI and Senator Max Cleland who was in my unit as Captain. He is the triple amputee who came home, was appointed Head of the Veterans Affairs by President Carter and made enormous changes to the VA. Then was elected Senator of Georgia for two terms. This picture was taken last year when he was on the Bill Maher Show. I was invited as a special guest and we all had dinner after the show.

Notice the Short timer's ribbon. The ribbon came from a liquor bottle that a friend of mine drank for me since I do not drink.

John Rosique161 viewsThese are the toys that I had in my room in Cam Ranh Bay, Vietnam. I only have the turntable and speakers today. I built the cabinet our of scrap 3/4" plywood. I also had a refrigerator in my room. I kept sodas for anyone willing to pay 15ยข for a soda. I did not always have it this good in Vietnam. My first three months were on an Army Base, Qui Nhon. The water was yellow and smelled bad. I had to sleep with my M16 and in a mosquito net.
