During his years in the military, he served with the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) and participated in missions during the Vietnam War. His responsibilities included leading specialized teams and working in demanding conditions in Southeast Asia. Over time, his dedication and leadership were recognized with several military honors, including three Silver Stars. He eventually retired from the Army with the rank of lieutenant colonel after completing a distinguished career. Fellow service members often described him as someone deeply committed to the responsibilities of his role and to the soldiers who served alongside him.
After his retirement from the military, he remained active in public life. He participated in political discussions, shared his opinions on national issues, and at one point entered the presidential race in 1992 as a candidate for the Populist Party. He also became known for traveling to situations where tensions were high in order to encourage dialogue and understanding. In one well-known event in Idaho during the early 1990s, he helped communicate with people involved in a tense situation and worked toward a peaceful outcome. His willingness to speak directly with different groups often placed him in unusual and challenging circumstances, but he believed communication could help reduce conflict.
