Of Duty and Bullfighting

摘要

In 1961, 15-year-old bob murray was sworn in as the newest member of the Five Points Delaware Junior Firefighter program. Bob's dad was a lifetime member, and joining Five Points was a dream come true for young Bob. Bob was a sponge, learning all he could about the art and science of firefighting. He drilled and he trained. He responded, gaining confidence, skill, and pride at making a difference for his community. Four years later, now a young man of 19, he heard his nation's call to duty: She was at war, and he felt obliged to answer the call. In April 1966, after months of intense training and drill, he was a 20-year-old nervous young soldier joining his regiment, A Troop, 3rd Squadron, 4th Cavalry, 25th Infantry Division, which deployed earlier to Vietnam.
