I was on the way to work at UAL at Ohare when I heard it on radio---listening to the news I didn't pay any attention to what I was doing and got stopped for speeding--I told the cops and they said don't try any bull shit on them so I turned the radio back up so they could hear it themselves---they left in a hurry to get back to the station to get briefed on status-----that was Thursday and my draft notice arrived on Monday (had been mailed on Friday) so I think they knew something was going on---------Served thru the civil unrest in Alabama--------when 2inf div got redone to 1st Cav and activated to go I (tank mech helper) was left at Sand Hill to turn in the Cav armoured equipment--------not being an infantry mos and short I was let go 90 days early to go to school----------lots of friends were sent over---
