GARY BOCHER

horizontal rule

Died April 23, 2000

Gary was in the Navy from March 11, 1960 until April 10, 1967 I don't know when he was in Viet-Nam, because he only told me about a year before he passed away.

He received the National Defense Service Medal, Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal (Viet-Nam), good conduct medal - Second award for
service ending 3-10-67. He was an E-5 or ATR2 (Petty Officer 2nd Class) when he left the service.  I know he got that big Anchor tattoo when he was a senior and Welcome Sherer made him wear long sleeve shirts the rest of the school year.

I can't believe it will be four years on April 21st( he died on Good Friday) since he's been gone. I miss him so much.

Thanks, Diane Bocher (Gary's sister)
