The Life and Times of an Alabama Kid: A Vietnam Combat Veteran and A Fire Chief At this stage of my life, now 81 years old, I find myself reflecting on the journey I've taken-the life I've lived, the people I've met, the lessons I've learned, and the memories I hold dear, especially those with my family. I remember the good times, the bad times, and the sad times. Through it all, I've tried to live as a good person, always striving to be helpful to those in need. I love Jesus, my country, my family, my freedom, and my friends. I'm thankful for the life I've lived and proud of the accomplishments I've made along the way. - Larry L. Brown
