around the same time for a tumor on his arm. I am not sure
what branch of the services he was involved in only that my Aunt
told me that he ran a "Big Gunner" if that makes sense
to anyone please let me know what service that might have
been. He would be over 60+ years and is a tall man over
six foot! He may be dead and any information would be greatly
appreciated. He was also known to be in Long Beach area and was
an Alcoholic. I can be contacted by email.
