He was an active member of the 446 Bomb Group Association, the American Museum in Britain and the 2nd Air Division Association. He enjoyed weekly poker with his buddies and getting two perfect hands while playing cribbage with the late Cy Young. He also enjoyed the many fishing trips to Canada and Minnesota.
