Always wanting to be a movie star - he and a friend hitchhiked to California after graduation and sought out that dream - but the draft at that time called to him and he decided to join the Navy and entered the Great Lakes Naval Training Center in Illinois. He stayed in the Navy on board the USS Lafayette - SSBN 616 until his honorable discharge in 1973.
