I served with Mike in the 374th Aerial Port Sq (MAC) at Clark Air Base, Philippines in the mid-late 70s when I was just a young Airman and he was a Staff Sergeant. He was a good guy with a great sense of humor. Rest in peace, Mike.
my grandpa was a really good man sure he was a bit strict at times but he was still my grandpa and I will never forget him
