Burdette Burkhart
I served with MCB 11 as a BU in
Delta Company in Vietnam in 1969, after serving a one year tour on Midway
Island. After my enlistment was completed I returned home to Nebraska and joined
the Nebraska Air National Guard as a traditional weekender and retired as a
Senior Master Sergeant with 32 years of service. I worked full time as a Lincoln
Nebraska Police Officer and retired with 27 years. After retirement I worked one
year in the United Nations Peacekeeping Mission in Bosnia & Herzegovina as a
police trainer in the Serbian City of Banja Luka. I have always been very proud
to tell friends that I served in the Seabees.
