Larry McFall volunteered for Vietnam in 1968 but the Army had other plans for him.
âI guess I felt I should be doing my duty over in a combat area,â he said. âI went back to Germany. That made my second tour to Germany.â
The Elwood, Indiana, native had three tours to Germany during his 20 years as a Soldier. He retired in 1979 as a sergeant first class.
McFall was a junior when he quit high school to join the Army.
âMy dad was a World War II vet, National Guard. Military family. Thatâs all I wanted to do,â he said. âWhen I got old enough at 17 I quit school and joined the Army.â
