My Grandfather

Comments: Looking for anyone, or any information reguarding Robert F Sittler. He is my grandfather, and passed away before I was able to ask him about this information. The only thing I know for sure is that he enlisted in 1950. He was stationed at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. This is all the information my family was able to obtain after his death in 2001. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
