Jack Grubbs enlisted in the United States Army at eighteen and retired thirty-nine years later as a brigadier general. His military assignments included two tours of combat duty in Vietnam, company command in the 82nd Airborne Division, battalion command, and service on the West Point faculty, eventually being selected as Professor and Department Head, Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering.
