WHO WERE THEY ? - #40 - Raymond DuPuy - VGN

[NW Mailing List]

 In reading this extensive resume again, I'm struck by the thought that since Raymond DuPuy didn't spend very long in most of those positions, he must have had trouble keeping a job and/or wore out his welcome quickly. Just my .02 worth. At ease, and smoke 'em if ya got 'em! (:-)
