Wanye Watson at 40th High School Reunion

 
Wayne Watson, YN2 

Well, let's see.  I live between Seguin and San Marcos, Texas about 40 miles east of San Antonio.  After I left the navy in 1970, I went back to college graduating in 1972 with a BBA.  After doing a little job hopping I went to work for the Texas Department of Public Safety as a state trooper and retired in 2001. 

My wife and I met on a drug bust, she's a detective with the Seguin Police Department, and between us we have three children ages 22, 33, & 40 living in Austin, Georgia and Canada.  When I left the Navy, I basically put all of it behind me and every now and then I would think of something that happened in Alameda or on the Shangri La but I just couldn't conjure up any faces, but when I saw the website I recognized everyone.
