À propos de cet audio
Dave shares his experience with KFGO's Robbie Daniels:
David A. “Dave” Essler
US Army
E-4
Brooten, Minnesota is where I grew up. I now live in Alexandria. I volunteered for the Army and served from January 1967 through January 1969. I spent my basic training time at Fort Lewis, Washington and then was connected to the 2nd Armored Div. where I was part of the infantry. Our unit saw time at Fort Hood, Texas; Munich, Germany; and Fort Riley, Kansas. Earning a perfect score on my physical fitness test three times was something very fun for me to achieve.
When I was through with the military, I worked in construction and installing floor coverings for many years. I now enjoy the slower pace of the retired life to the fullest.
I am a proud father of three wonderful sons, one of which is also in the military. My seven grandchildren mean so much to me, too. In my spare time I enjoy playing sports and traveling.
I am a member of the American Legion in Alexandria.
