Clarence served in the Air Force from 1946 to 1953 during the Korean Conflict. He served five years in communications at Hickam AFB, Honolulu and ended his military career at Tinker AFB in Oklahoma after spending two years there.
The basketball team he was on won a trip to Japan which was a special honor for him and his team mates.
After retiring from the Air Force, Clarence went to college on the GI Bill. He earned a business degree from Oklahoma University.
Anne said during WWII my home town (Ennis, Texas) lost seven young men in the war, and I have always been one who appreciates and prays for our military forces. Thank you for keeping us reminded of the sacrifices that so many made and are still making for our country.
