CHAPTER 6. MY ARMY DAYS. I entered the U. S. Army as a Second Lt. in late September 1957 and went through eight weeks of TOBC (Transportation Officers Basic Course). My class had 81 officers i n it. I graduated 28 th in my class. We had 200 hours of Military Science and Tactics, 85 hours of Transportation, 30 hours of Misc, 81 hours of Non-Academic subjects for total of 315 hours. This was in addition to 4 y;ears of Military at University of Arizona. One day I was called out of class by a Captain and a Master Sgt. “Oh my God, what have I done I thought! It turned out as a result of hunting I had become a pretty good rifle and carbine shooter. I had the highest carbine rifle score in the class, and they wanted me on the post rifle t eam. On the team of five I was the only officer and had a score of 196 out of 200. I was pretty pleased! Being adventurous I had signed up for Air Borne Training. I passed the physical which consisted of running a six- minute mile and so many pushups, sit ups, and others. I was to go through training and jump out of airplanes with the 82 nd Air Borne unit in Ft. Bragg, North Carolina on completion of the eight week course. However it did not happen. If there is any one thing certain in life, it’ s change! Instead I foll owed my love for r ailroading. How did it happen? Having a love for railroads I went snooping around Ft Eustis railroad on post and went into the yard office of the 714 th Railway Operating Battalion. In talking they discovered I had seven years railroad operating experience. They contacted their company commander Capt. Bevers who immediately came down to meet me. We talked. He told me that if I would pull my application for 82 nd Airborne that he could get me assigned to the 714 th . I asked him how that could happen when the orders came out of Washington, D.C. He said “Trust me! If you pull that application, I guarantee I can get you orders!” 1
