He was a civilian employee of the US Air Force in Reading, Philadelphia, Marietta, and the former Olmsted Air Force Base, Middletown. During this time, while assigned to the Air Force Logistics Liaison Office, he traveled to and worked in every European country on our side of the Iron Curtain in resolution of Air Force logistical problems. Also during this time, he assisted in establishing Air Force logistic policy involving the Cuban Missile Crisis and the crisis that developed during the communist buildup of the Berlin Wall. He retired in 1982 as a logistician from the US Army Security Assistance Center at the New Cumberland Army Depot to raise his son. He was the former owner of Flag Picture Framers.
