David McGlochlin


















I became friends with Dave in high school, and the few years afterwards.  I can honestly say that he was the best friend I ever had. I remember him dropping by my apartment in Carmel to tell me that he had joined the Navy.  He said he did it for 'security'.  He spent a year in Okinawa at the naval station, and then was sent to Vietnam to die as a hero.

When I was in the third grade, I briefly attended an elementary school in Woodland Hills, California.  It so happened that there were two 3rd grade classes, and my twin brother and I were in different classes.  Dave was in one of those classes! I like thinking he was in mine.
