I feel I must disagree. I think it is quite unusual to have had so many so close to you serve in so many conflicts. No one close to me served in any recent conflicts as far as I know from the Bunker side of the family. My father-in-law served in WWI and my husband in WWII. They were both in active combat in Germany. I am most thankful for all who have been willing to put their lives on the line for all of us.

My father, Martin Bunker, served in the Navy in WW II. His son, my brother, Billie Bunker, served 20 years in the Navy including several stays in Antarctica and 1 whole day on the Oriskany off Vietnam. His son, my nephew, Gary Bunker, served 12 years in the Army with several hitches in So. Korea. My first husband, Eugene Haumschild, served in the Army Air Force in the So. Pacific during WW II. My second husband, Archie Richards, served in the Army in the So. Pacific during WW II and then until 1949 in the Air Force. My uncle, Harry Mills, served in the Army in Europe during WW II. His sons, Art and Earl Mills, both served in the Army in So. Korea. My son-in-law, Cesar Abreu, served over 20 years in the Army with deployments in both Afghanistan and Iraq. In addition, both of my parents had uncles who were killed in WW I. None of us knew them of course, since my parents were born in 1917 and 1918 during that war. The whole thing about this is that it is not at all unusual for a Bunker family.

Thank you for the data on Military Bunkers. I have all these names in the mil db with the exception of Terence Patrick Bunker. Ralph, can you please forward any additional info about Terry's tour in Vietnam? While I do appreciate data on others that served, the Bunker mil db is now 368 pages, and I still have British service personnel to enter. To all that were in the military, THANK YOU for your service. gil -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jean Bunker via Sent: Saturday, March 07, 2015 1:02 PM To: Karene Topp; [email protected] Subject: Re: [BUNKER] military families We have a few Canadians that served.
