Comments: Would like to let anyone that knew my Dad Albert Allen Jouglard during the years 1954-1955 on Kwajalein that he passed away December 6, 2008 at the Dallas VA Nursing Home Hospice Care Unit from Liver Cancer. During his life he had MS, Trigeminal Neuralgia and then Hepatitis and Liver Cancer. He worked in Personnel on Kwajalein and also helped with building the outdoor theatre. When he was discharged his rank was PO2. Anyone wishing to write me may do so and if you would like a copy of his obituary let me know and I will send it to you. It has a photo of him in his blue Navy uniform. I grew up hearing about his time on Kwajalein and learning about the Navy. He is missed by his family and the many friends who attended his funeral which had the Honor Guard there to play Taps and present my Mom with the Flag.My Brother is a member of the Patriot Guard and asked the North Texas Chapter of Patriot Guard to come to his funeral and stand up for him.
