Can it be 30 years?
Posted for: ALLAN DAVID MORTENSEN:
I'm looking at your 1964 yearbook picture right now Al. I know you remember when we were both police cadets and we talked all the time about being cops. I am now just finishing up a 30 year career with ECPD. You would have made a great cop Al...better than me I think. I've told a lot of people about you and what a great person you were. If you had made it home I'll bet our kids would have been friends too. My oldest son is a deputy sheriff in Riverside County. All three of my children, two sons and a daughter have served in the USAF. Someday Al I'm going to visit the wall and touch your name. I know the Lord is taking good care of you. Thankyou for making the ultimate sacrifice for us. I love you brother, Chuck Donivan. STG2 USN 1966-1970
