This is a story about a very special group of boys and girls that lived in the same neighborhood. They went to the same schools and attended the same church.

This group of young people belonged to a church group that took them from the Junior High School days into the High School years. It created a bond between them over the years into adulthood. The church was a prevalent part of their lives.

The church group organized activities and dances for the members.  They shared their younger years together.

The Asian war came along and the United States got militarily involved in Vietnam.  With the complexities of the war the church group got separated after high school graduation. The boys of the group contributed their skills to the Asian conflict with their enlistments into the United States Air Force.

The following pages are about this very special group of young people and their families.

This is their story.
