Burney
Burney and I meet in the summer of 81. We served together for 15 months and spent most of our free time together with our other friends from the dorm, Donnie Bethmann, Kirk Thornton and Kevin Greco. It wasn't until right before he left the Air Force that we realized that Burney was only a nickname. I believe that the term "Dumbasses" was his response when we told him we didn't know his real name was Robert. I'll remember Burney as a good friend who enjoyed, beer , cigarettes, loud music on his Bose 801 speakers and that god awful Peppermint Schnapps. I hated that stuff. Tom Atkinson ackfamily@cox.net
