He joined the Army and served 2 years after WWII was ending. He had so many fond memories of his time in Germany. After his time as an Army Paratrooper he returned to Denver to be near his brothers. Soon after he met his future wife Mary Arabalo. They married on February 28, 1951 in Raton, NM and soon after began their family in Denver.
