    My mum Marilyn (Clissold) was Brian's cousin. We live in Cardiff in the UK and I came across this page because we were talking today about Brian, Bradley and Travis and remembering their visit to my grandparents John & Ivy in the 1980's.

    Brian and I served in the Sentry Dog Section at Shepherd AFB in Texas. We had a lot of great times together including driving his '63 chevy to East Tennessee and back to Texas in about 3 days. I think about him and those times often
