As the Nation celebrates Veteran’s Day this month, Schochet pays tribute to those brave members of our own community who served in the Armed Forces.

David Johnson, 75, resident of Schochet’s Country Glen Apartments, signed up for the Navy when he was in high school and began reserve duty one weekend a month. Following graduation, he began active duty as a hospital corpsman in 1971.

He served three years of active duty and three as a reserve at the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Air Base Willow Grove in Montgomery County, PA.

He says, “Basically we did everything a nurse would do, taking caring for active-duty personnel at the base and their dependents.”

“My main goal was not to go to Vietnam,” he says.” I didn’t want to kill people, and I didn’t want to run the risk of being killed. I joined the Navy to avoid being drafted into the Army but in the end, I really enjoyed my time there. It got me away from my parents and taught me independence and how to function on my own. I am by nature an introvert and I became part of a group and gained leadership skills.”

Upon return to civilian life, Mr. Johnson worked as department manager at Kings Department store in Quincy, MA, and later in the check processing area at ADP payroll company.
