I also was a friend of "Hals" at GFAB in '61/'62 on the boxing team. we saw they were taking volunteers for vietnam so together we did. hal was ok but i didn't have enough time left!!! still haunts me!!! RIP my friend!!!

I was at Grand Forks AFB with Hal and was on his boxing team.I was not good like Hal, but he taught me a lot and I got lucky in a couple of tounaments won some then lost in next one.He went on to Minneapolis for the Upper Midwest Tournament where he won the lightheavy crown and he was named the Fightingest Fighter.Would be great if his son Charles would e-mail me,I've got some pictures and a couple of newspaper clippings of his exploits.
