Born sixth in a family of eight children, I grew up poor, graduated high school at seventeen. I could not find a job. I had to be at least eighteen to work on a machine. I tried to get dad to sign me in the Army, but he said no. So I waited until I was eighteen. The next day, I went and joined the Army Airborne.

I made a promise I would try to help my family if I could, so I sent four allotments home: one to Dad, one to my sister, one to my grandmother, and one to my brother who had gotten into trouble.
