About Gerald Richard Houck

Joined the Navy at a very early age and became a radio operator on ships. Married his wife, Isabelle, in 1950. He then went back into the Navy for a second tour after their marriage. He claims to have announced to the US the raising of the flag on Mt. Suribachi, Iwo Jima. He loved growing his own vegetables in his garden. He should have been a statistician as he kept records on everything including exactly how many walnuts fell from the tree that year, how many tomatoes he grew that year, the number of inches of rainfall, etc.
