I don't know the year the Green's started or ended the creamery. I don't know the year the Medlocks had the creamery. I was in first grade with Cora Marie Medlock until they moved. I remember Ed and Mary Odenbach having the creamery, but don't know when they left.
I remember Ed Heye and his shoe shop in Haigler and later in Wray.
Claudine (Wiley) Sterner mentioned the G.O.C (Ground Observer Core) with her merit badge -- don't' think I got one! But, I think we radioed Air Traffic to North Platte.
I further went to the U.S. Army Armed Forces to be assigned to NORAD, (North America Radar Air Defense); so GOC must have been instrumental, thinking the Communists might bomb us during the Cold War, as I spent a short time on a missile site, and the majority of my time at headquarters.
Dundy County, Nebraska, Cheyenne County, Kansas and Yuma County, Colorado had several enlisted personnel -- men and women enrolled during the war years. We have several golden boys who gave their lives for their country, from our area for the freedoms we have today. They are honored every year on Memorial Day at the Haigler Cemetery.
The Veterans of Yesteryear.
