Oops, I have data on Terence Michael Bunker who is probably the Terence Patrick Bunker. Can someone please clarify this misunderstanding for the mil db? gil Terence M. Bunker D-664C-II; RN 14037; Capt. US Army - Vietnam AWARDS: Distinguished Flying Cross Captain Terence M. Bunker is awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for heroism while participating in aerial flight evidenced by voluntary action above and beyond the call of duty in support of Army of the Republic of Vietnam troops in Laos. Captain Bunker distinguished himself on 25 February 1971 while serving as pilot of a UH-1H lift helicopter during the emergency extraction of an injured helicopter crew who were forced to land in enemy territory. When Captain Bunker's aircraft received hostile fire as he approached the extraction site, he directed accurate suppressive fire against the enemy positions. Despite enemy mortar fire imparting around the downed aircraft, he landed his helicopter and quickly brought the injured crew aboard. As he flew his aircraft from the landing zone it again received hostile fire, against which he directed accurate suppressive fire. Captain Bunker's outstanding flying ability and devotion to duty were in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army. HISTORIAN NOTE: Terence Michael Bunker, son of Jack Lee Bunker (D-664C).

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.
