"John served in the US Army Infantry from 1967-1969, including a combat tour of duty in South Vietnam. He received numerous decorations - among them the Combat Infantryman's Badge, Purple Heart, Bronze Star and Army Commendation for Valor Medal. He was severely wounded in December of 1968...John authored the book "Wounded Body-Healing Spirit" which dealt with his combat experiences as well as his struggles with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Clinical Depression. It was an unselfish endeavor to help others. He truly enjoyed helping veterans at the Bath VA Hospital and would often supply them with some of the things that they needed - sometimes as simple as a suitcase in which to carry their clothing."
