About this listen
Tank McNamara had a chance to visit with Jerry on their first stop at the The National Museum of the United States Army.
Gerald W. “Jerry” Anderson
US Army
E-5
I was born and raised in New York Mills, Minnesota and still call the area home today. I was drafted by the Army and served for two years (1970 through 1972). After graduating from basic training at Fort Lewis, Washington, I was assigned to Bravo Btry, 3rd of the 82nd, 396th Infantry Brigade. I was an artillery section chief and saw most of my Army time stationed in Da Nang, Vietnam. Earning a Bronze Star and the Non-Commissioned Officer of the Week were real highlights for me.
After my active duty service, I returned to the Upper Midwest and worked as a mechanic, later in insurance sales, and finally in manufacturing. I’ve been retired for several years, now.
I am extremely proud of my four wonderful children and 14 incredible grandchildren.
I am a member of VFW Post 3289.
