title: B.R. Parks, A Life Apart from Vietnam

description: [profile bio] Barnett R. Parks is a working optometrist as well as an alumni of UCLA. Though he did not participate in the Vietnam War, he was the same age as many of the soldiers fighting at the time. During his years at UCLA he was entered into the draft lottery, but was not selected for service. Nevertheless, the war caused impact onto his life and especially his career decisions. He wanted to study in the field of medicine, but due to repercussions of the war, he opted to study the field of optometry instead. He still remembers the Vietnam War period clearly, such as the protests that happened in his university and the news and the images in the media. Fortunately none of his relatives or close friends were injured or killed due to the war, but like many people alive during that time he holds a negative opinion about the war. Mr. Parks currently has two daughters and is still working as an optometrist.

title: Mike O'Callaghan, American Police Force

description: [profile bio] Michael O'Callaghan was the only boy in a family of five children. Growing up in Arizona, Mike became an avid distance runner, competing at a collegiate and national level. When his draft notice came in December of 1972 for the Vietnam War, he reported for his physical evaluation, only to be turned away for inadequate health standards. Three weeks later, he ran the best marathon of his life. Health, for the military, is relative. Mike's parents were relieved, and his mother offered him a bus, plane, or train ticket to Canada before he was to re-report the next year. Fortunately for Mike and his family, the war ended before he could report to the draft board again. Mike stills lives in Arizona and is married to Jeni O'Callaghan. Together, they have three children. Mike works as a middle school math teacher, and is still fully involved in coaching track and field and cross country. He is still running marathons.
