Bob's
proud wife, Cherylin, has this to say:
Robert
C. Redfern is 56, a wonderful father and
grandfather with 10 grandchildren. He is
very proud of the 9 years spent in the
U.S. Navy , joining at 20. Bob
spent most of those years aboard the Shangri-La.
Bob did two tours in Vietnam, Between 1969 and
1973. He did not retire but sometimes
wishes he had stayed in. He has traveled
all over the world during tours of duty, to
such places as Greece, Japan, England, Italy,
and a variety of other cities and countries.
Bob's
job was repairing electronic equipment, such
as communications equipment and radar on his
ship and other ships. The Shangri-La
was an aircraft carrier. Actually,
Bob is still in electronic work, which
goes back to his early days on ship. He
is a Computer Technician and Consultant.
He spent 4 more years in the Navy in the US
with special tours around our wonderful
country. He loves the Navy and the
great United States.
I
am very proud of him for providing our family
with the freedom we have today, just as
our proud military are doing all over the
world.
