I graduated from the University of Delaware in 1964 with an R.O.T.C. commission as
a
Second Lieutenant in the Military Police Corps. After one year in law school, I
decided I was not cut out to be a lawyer and quit law school. I entered on
active duty and served in the U.S. Army from August 1965 to May 1968. In May 1967 I
arrived in Vietnam where I served in the 504th Military Police Battalion and the 178th
Military Police Detachment
