The only photo I found of him in uniform was in front of the Alamo his Girl friend in a wheelchair.
Something is wrong about Garren life story and girl friend in a wheelchair. He only work in the Air Force until the age of 19, he was barely in the Air Force. He does not have any stripes in the photo in front of the Alamo.
Is this a from a day pass from Basic Training? The USAF would give you a day pass to see the town when you were near the end of Basic training.
The numbers do not add up. Was his girl friend in a wheelchair before he enter the Air Force? Can anybody make out the ribbons?
If he was in for a year he should have at least one stripe this is why I believe the photo is from Basic training.
