John shares the hurdles he overcame in his childhood: his family's financial struggles, his father leaving when John was a teen, and his journey through education. Upon joining the ROTC in college, John learned to pilot helicopters, eventually leading to his deployment to Vietnam. In over 300 combat missions, John survived two helicopter crashes and transported multitudes of wounded soldiers from battlefields.
