Helping others...932nd Airlift Wing's Medical Group says farewell

Before this humanitarian relief mission to Bulize, the 932nd Airlift Wing's Lt. Col. Richard Feldmeier ha a long history of military men in his family. His grandfather was a member of the Coast Guard, and his father and three uncles were members of the U.S. Navy. In 1970, it was his turn. Back then, Colonel Feldmeier was a 19-year-old recent high school graduate. He then began attending college and discovered “the college life.” At that point he decided he wasn’t ready for college. He decided to enlist into the Air Force, just in time, because in between basic training and technical school, his draft number was selected. It was the same as his birthdate...number 13. He went on to attend the Lowry AFB, Colo., Technical School for Inventory Management. He retired in August from the 932nd Airlift Wing, 932nd Medical Group, at Scott Air Force Base, Ill.
