My Dad is Robert Putnam. He'll be 84 yrs old soon. He took his basic @ Camp Wolters, Texas. He was in the 3rd Bat., 188 PIR, Co. H . He was stationed in Japan in 1946. In the early 1950's he went back into the Army and was at Ft Campbell, when he broke his back testing a newly built 34 ft tower. He eventually became a Sheriff's Deputy with Montgomery County, Ohio until his retirement in 1988. He is now basically disabled, as the back injury which troubled him his entire life, has, in the past year, really caused a downturn in his health. He has numerous pictures of himself in Japan. Including one in his "Swing" hat. He has been a wonderful father to us 3 children. Thank you for reading. Sincerely , Paul Putnam, US Army 1984-1988.
