He served in the US Army from 1968 to 1971 as a combat journalist in Vietnam and as a military journalist at Fort Carson, Colorado. While in Vietnam he traveled throughout the Mekong Delta, which gave him unfettered access to the realities of the War and the affects it was having on the American men and women in uniform.
Before entering the military, he attended Pam American University in Edinburg, Texas and worked briefly for The Monitor newspaper in McAllen, Texas as a feature writer. For over 30 years he worked in Northern California as a legal assistant at several prestigious law firms in the Bay Area before returning to his roots in the Rio Grande Valley.view less
