Jerry Castleberry

U.S. Navy Veteran

You know Classmates time has a way to get away from us. Me looking back on my childhood was the Greatest time of my life. There were No Keep Off on Lawns, No Gun Restrictions, No Trespass Signs, Go and Do what ever you wanted to do within Right or Wrong. From a ten years old boy to grow man I see how our laws has changed for the worst in some cases. Even at five year old I worked in the fields to make, .50 cents in Hot Weather. Of course, that .50 cent peace was 90 percent silver. I worked while going to various High Schools from Elementary 1956 to retirement age 42. I was on the Draft Notice Number from Uncle Sam so, I decided to join The United States Navy in 1965. In 1967 to 1968 I was in The Tonkin-Gulf fighting for our Freedom and The South Vietnamese people. The general public hated us. I know cause I was attack in Boston, Mass. War is more than being overseas. In our own country, war was going on. It really made me sad to see this going on in America The Beautiful! We need America to turn around and get on the Right Track. I love my Family, Jeff Davis Classmates, and Facebook Friends Church has been a great part of my life. That's what keeps me going. Thank you Jesus! Don't expect a Combat Veteran to discuss all about, Memories of War. All gave some but Some gave All!
