kilo post #13372

Fogleman-Deptula: Served together at HQ USAF, DC 88-92 and then again in 1997. Deptula and R.C Thompson worked together at the US Strategic Command. Rick, Roland, Gamble worked together at NSWAC and all three have crossed paths with Deptula in the USAF, I have not found out to what lengths but I will. I have only been at it for a few hours. I am still looking for a connection between them and Mike C. it may take a little longer though. All the men in this group have worked with or around each other.
