Master Sgt. (Ret.) James Stuart spent twenty years in the Air Force from February 1961 to November 1981. After Basic Military Training Stuart went to technical school to learn his job which was a ground communications radio technician. During his career Stuart served two tours in Vietnam at Bien Hoa Air Base. While in Vietnam Stuart worked on the communications systems of helicopters that were used by Tactical Air Control Party Airmen. After retiring from the Air Force Stuart began working with the Veteran's of Foreign Wars post in San Marcos, Texas. In his time as commander of the VFW post Stuart has helped shape the future of kids who grew up in the post. "Two kids were always around the post and I always talked with them about joining the Air Force," said Stuart. "A couple years back they joined the Air Force and I was able to make the trip to see them graduate BMT. It made me so proud to see those two join and succeed and I would do it all over again just to be a part of the Air Force."
