He was a submariner in the Korean War. He does not share much information with his family so I do not have many specific details.
He was a engineman on the Tinosa and the Sablo submarines. He was trained as a UDT person.
He had a friend named "Kson" or "KC" who was a boxer. He also had a friend named "Horton".
If you knew my dad or think you knew him please write me back and I'll forward the message.
