Kim lived in Foresthill Calif in the early sixties. His father was the resident California Highway Patrol Officer. His family sold their Foresthill home in the summer of 1966 to my family. Sometime after that they move to Saskatchewan Canada. Kim returned to California and stopped by his former home in Foresthill and we became friends. In November 1969 from Auburn California U.S. Army recruiting office Kim and Steven Gibbs entered the Army under the buddy program. We both went to Fort Lewis Washington for Basic training.
