March 23 1969 was a day that changed my mothers,sister,brother and my life forever. My sister was 6, brother was 2 and I was 5. My mother was a German citizen waiting in Aschaffenburg Germany while my father was doing his duty in Dau Tieng with the 65th Engineers. My mother , sister, brother a I moved to Tacoma Washington soon after due to my fathers recomendations to my mother while he was in Vietnam as he trained at FT. Lewis before being sent.
I am proud to be the first generation American on my moms side as I was Born at Ft. Leonardwood Misssouri. Being here in Washington gives me a daily solice in knowing that my father saw my home as the paradise that it is. I'm sure he knew that his traits would be passed on with regards to fishing for Salmon and Steelhead for which I have had a passion for for many years. Thank you dad, I always catch the first one for you!
