He joined the United States Airforce where he pursued a successful career as a Military Police Officer and served in the Korean and Vietnam War. He retired after 20 years and 15 days. Through the years Charlie would have many interests and hobbies. They included collecting stamps, coins, jewelry, and guns. Probably his favorite pastime was using his metal detectors to find and salvage historical military memorabilia.
