in1st Cavalry Divisionwith B Co. 228th Assault Support Helicopter Bn.
And with the last American Chinook unit in Vietnam the 362nd Aviation Co.
as a Flight Engineer on CH-47 Chinook Helicopters.
Upon my return from Vietnam I enlisted in the California Army National
Guard as a Combat Engineer with 579th Combat Engineer Bn until 1993
when I was diagnosed with throat cancer from exposure to Agent Orange.
I subsequently lost my voice because of it. As a result, in 1996, I became the
first and only “on-air” personality in radio without a natural voice.
I became “Digital Dan” using a voice synthesizer and laptop computer to
speak with. I hosted two live 2hr shows per week, The Digital Music Zone
and The Frankly Zappa Show, on KHUM-FM 104.3&104.7.
I retired in 2007 and began to write “Nice Day for Flyin’”, my first book.ver menos
