By Emily SouvignierWhen Bob Schultz joined the military in
March of 1963, there were a few things he was expecting based on the nature of the job. He knew he would go to basic training, he knew he would get sent throughout the United States and possibly even across the world. He knew he would learn new specialties and receive very specifi c training as a member of the Air Force security service.But one thing he never expected was fi nding the love of his life where he least expected her to be. Schultz was just 23 years old when he
joined the United States Air Force. He attended basic training in Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, followed by technical school - fi rst in Mississippi and fi nally in San Angelo, Texas. From there, he went to specialist training in Fort Meade, Maryland before being sent overseas.Even though the war in Vietnam was raging
at the time, Schultz instead found himself on his way to Crete, a Greek island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, where he was stationed for two years. “The island of Crete is beautiful,” recalled
Schultz. “We could plan a 4th of July picnic for next year and know that it will be a beautiful sunny day and it won’t rain. They get all of their rain from December through February and from then on, the weather is just beautiful.”Crete, a volcanic island, is home to crystal
clear Mediterranean waters and bountiful groves of bananas, oranges and tomatoes throughout the island. The people of Greece, Schultz found, were very hospitable and friendly, as well as gracious and forgiving. During World War II just two decades
before, Crete had been taken over by the Germans. In downtown Heraklion, the largest city and the administrative capital of the island of Crete, the Germans had set up their Gestapo Headquarters, which still stands today, according to Schultz. At the time of Schultz’s service on the
island, the building was still standing; the German Swastika still gazing down from the gates for all to see, even though the building had long since been vacant. Schultz asked one of the locals, “How come you haven’t torn that down?” Their reply: “No, no. That’s so our children
will know that the Germans came here and occupied this island. Now they’re gone, and we’re still here. And we don’t want people to forget that.”After his two years in Crete, Schultz
returned back to the United States to San Angelo, Texas once again, which he says is somewhat unusual. “Usually the Air Force never sends you
back to where you’ve already been before,” he said. “But I feel that was supposed to happen because when I went back to San Angelo, that was where I met Margaret.”The two fi rst met while at church; Bob
attended the service and Margaret, a San Angelo local, was singing in the church choir. When he fi rst saw her, he knew he wanted to ask her out.More times than he could count he picked
up the phone, tempted to give her a call. Finally, one day he worked up enough courage to dial her number. “The worst thing she can say is ‘no,’” he thought. To his surprise, Margaret agreed to go out
on what they used to call a “Coke Date,” and the rest is history. The two were married in March of 1967, the day after he was
discharged from the Air Force. Soon after, Bob and Margaret moved back
to Chicago, where Bob was born and raised, but they didn’t stay long. After coming to Canton to visit some of Bob’s family, a cousin suggested to Bob that they move to South Dakota when it was brought up how long both he and Margaret’s commute to work took each day in Chicago.“At the time, we didn’t have any children
and I thought, ‘If ever we were going to do something like this, now is the time.’ So we did, and I’ve never been sorry,” said Schultz. “The smartest thing I ever did in my whole life was move from Chicago to Canton.”Bob and Margaret moved to Canton in
October of 1968. They rented a couple of different places before purchasing the farm they still live on today when it came up for auction. “There’s a lot of good things about
Chicago, but it’s not a good city to raise a family,” he added. “We have a good life here in Canton. It’s a good town to be a part of.”Schultz has been a member of the American
Legion in Canton for many years.One memory from Schultz’s fi rst time in
San Angelo is certainly one he will never forget. They had just had their meal, or “chow” as they called it, and had a little bit of time before their next class began. On this particular day, Schultz went back to his room to rest. The date was November 22, 1963. “We left the doors open, and a guy came
by and stuck his head in the door and said, ‘The President’s been shot.’ My exact words back to him were, ‘Okay, what’s the rest of the joke?’ And he said, ‘No, I’m not kidding.’ And that was when I learned that President Kennedy had been assassinated.The base in San Angelo was about 300

miles from Dallas where Kennedy was shot in the motorcade through Dealey Plaza, and the whole base was put on lockdown. The rest of the day, Schultz and the rest of the troops on base sat in class while listening to the updates coming in on the radio.Looking back on his time serving the
military, Schultz says that it was a good experience. “One thing it teaches is discipline,” he said. “When you go through basic training, at fi rst you can’t do anything right. When I was fi rst down in Lackland and San Angelo, I thought I had made the biggest mistake of my life. Pretty soon, it dawns on you that your TI’s (training instructors) are teaching you to think military, which needs to be done. By the time we fi nished our 18 weeks, we’d have done anything for our TI.”Schultz also says that when it comes to our
military heroes, the United States never fails to step up and do what needs to be done.“Tom Brokaw wrote the book ‘The
Greatest Generation.’ I think that’s a good book and what had to say was true. But the greatest generation is still here today,” he said. “If there would be something like, another Vietnam, our country always comes forward.”And while his four years in the military
provided him with many important life lessons, allowed him to meet good friends whom he still keeps in touch with, and gave him the opportunity to see the beautiful sights of several foreign countries, the best thing to come out of his military experience, Schultz says, was his wife. Bob and Margaret currently reside in
Canton and will be married for 54 years this March.

Bob and Margaret met while he was stationed in San Angelo, Texas, where Margaret was from. After his discharge from the service, the two were married in 1967 and the couple moved to Canton the following year.
By Emily SouvignierWhen Canton native Robert “Bob” Hilt left
for the U. S. Army the day after he turned eighteen, his father, Charlie Hilt, had given him a piece of advice that proved to be an important lesson that carried over into every day life: volunteer for everything.While both father and son served during
peace time, their experience in the United States Army signifi cantly shaped the men they both eventually came to be. Charlie was born in Belfor, California on
September 11, 1934. His father, also named Charlie, had a dairy farm with 125 milk cows. When Charlie was just a young boy, the government condemned his father’s dairy in order to establish a new location to make and build airplanes during World War II. Some time after, the family moved from California to a small farm near Inwood, where they continued to milk cows. “We had 21 milk cows and we milked them
all by hand,” said Charlie. “One day we went to Sioux Falls, and when I got home I said, ‘I gotta be back in two weeks.’ My dad said, ‘What for?’ and I said, ‘I joined the Army.’”Charlie went to basic training in Fort Bliss,
Texas for fourteen days and soon had to report back for infantry school. From there, the Army sent him to the 25th Infantry Division’s non-commissioned officer academy at Schofi eld Barracks, Hawaii, where he was stationed for the next two years.Part of Charlie’s training with the 25th
Infantry Division included actual beach landings from military ships, which was designed to familiarize the troops with the basic techniques of regimental and battalion size amphibious operations. He served as an assistant machine gunner in Battery D of the division’s 21st Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion. “I was the squad leader and there were six
other guys in the crew. We’d have to drive out there, dig foxholes and then we’d sleep in the rain,” Charlie recalled. “The Army issued you half a pup tent. Somebody else got the other half and that’s what you had.”While in Hawaii, Charlie quickly found out
that the best way to keep things interesting was to volunteer as often as possible, even if he didn’t know what exactly he would be up against.“Every time they asked for a volunteer,
there I was with my hand in the air,” he said.
“The next day, there I was with my hand in the air again. I never knew what we were doing but I did it anyway!”There were a few times, though, when
volunteering backfi red on him. “I volunteered to take someone’s guard
duty one night. Then come morning, he went to bed because he was off, but I had to go to work because I took his place!” said Charlie. “So I got two duties on that one time. So that
time volunteering didn’t work out so well.”Another time, he raised his hand as a
volunteer and was assigned to wash dishes in the kitchen. He had brought his duffel bag inside the kitchen with him, and when he was fi nished he found out that someone had taken his blanket right from his bag. That night, he slept on the kitchen fl oor without a blanket. The next morning, he recalls everyone lined up outside with instructions that “whoever
stole Hilt’s blanket better cough it up!” To his surprise, on their march back to their base later that morning, the blanket was found in the ditch. Whoever swiped it had gotten rid of it to avoid getting caught.Even after all of that excitement, the best
memory, Charlie says, is getting back on the ship to come home. He was even looking forward to milk cows again once he got back.He and his wife, Pearl, were married in
1956, just one month after he returned. They had fi ve children: Vernon, Bob, Steve, Linda and Don.
When Charlie and Pearl’s son, Bob, was just 17 years old, he also enlisted in the United States Army.“I joined for the same reason Dad did... I
didn’t want to milk his cows,” joked Bob. “I knew I wanted to be a law enforcement offi cer later in life, and being in the Army was the quickest way for me to do that. I signed up, I was 17 years old, and I left the day after I turned 18.”Bob attended basic training and MP
(military police) school at Fort McClellan, Alabama. From there, he spent 14 months in Fort Lewis, Washington as a military policeman. “I had the time of my life. I was 18-19 years
old, and by the time I left I was one of the patrol supervisors in a patrol car and I went all over post,” he said. “It was busy, but it was rough, too.”
Bob went on to spend 27 years in the military, and his father’s advice of always being willing to volunteer allowed him to do things that not everyone else was able to do. “Dad told me, ‘Volunteer for everything.’
So I did,” said Bob. “Every time they askedfor a volunteer I raised my hand. During my second duty in Fort Lewis, I volunteered for everything, and I got some pretty good duty because of it. I got some pretty dirty jobs,too, but as a whole most of that was pretty good.”Bob also was stationed in Germany for the
second half of his fi rst three years, and he
volunteered every chance he got while overthere as well. “I got to be a bodyguard for 4-Star
Generals. They let me go pick up a prisonerone day at the German-Holland border,” he added. “They allowed me to do so much because I was willing to volunteer.”Another time while at a winter camp in
Camp Ripley, Minn., the group was askedfor a volunteer. Once again, Bob raised his hand. “Good, you’re cracking eggs the rest of the
time you’re here,” Bob was told. “It was a winter camp. It was 20 degrees
below zero, everything was frozen solid. Your fi ngers hurt, your toes hurt, everything hurt. But the mess tent was warm,” he said.“So my duty was at night. I cracked eggs by the hundreds into this great, big metal bowl. I made the coffee, got the water boiling,

dumped the coffee grounds in. That was the best duty. It was warm all the time and I slept during the day. I didn’t have to go play in the snow. I was drinking coffee, I got hot soup all the time. The cooks would get up and I would have my breakfast, and then I’d go to bed. Everybody else had to go out and play in the snow. So that was one of those examples, always volunteer for everything.”Later in his military career, Bob spent a
year in the Iowa National Guard before coming to the South Dakota National Guard. “I was what they call a Nuclear Biological
Chemical Defense Specialist, so my responsibility in the South Dakota Guard unit was to ensure all the troops were profi cient in nuclear biological and chemical defense and that they could survive in that type of environment. What their gas masks were for, how they worked, how to get them on properly so there weren’t any casualties,
that sort of thing,” he explained.He taught classes on Nuclear Biological
Chemical Defense for 11 years. Then, he decided he wanted to do something different. Already having obtained his truck driving license, and having the required instructor credentials, he decided he wanted to teach military truck driving. He continued to do so for the next 13 years before retiring from the military in 2005. “I taught all of the truck driving at a place
called Fort Hunter Liggett out in California. 158,000 acres that we could teach truck driving on. Some of it was very dangerous,” said Bob. “There are hills so steep that these military trucks, when you’re going up the hill, leave deep, black ruts in the ground. And when you’re driving back down, the seatbelts prevented you from falling through the glass. It was probably the dirtiest place I have ever served, but it was also the prettiest.”Bob recalls one instance where he was
leading the convoy on a night drive. While driving through a vast meadow, he could sense the overwhelming smell of fl owers. He told himself he would go back later during the day. When he did, he discovered the whole meadow was full of Mountain Lupine. Another time they stumbled upon an area of about 50 acres of California poppies.Out of his 27 years in the military, Bob says
that teaching was one of the best parts of his entire military career. “You formed a bond with them, a
connection. The best part was when we were at war,” he said. “Those people I had in class were going overseas, every one of them. I had offi cers, enlisted people, some had even come from overseas to take the
class and then they were going back. They were like magnets, it was like they were sucking information out of you. But what I was teaching was survivability and they knew that. It was hard knowing they were going into combat.”When Operation Iraqi Freedom was
launched, troops from all over the country, including South Dakota, attended his class before heading overseas. When they returned home, many of them sent thank you letters to Bob for teaching them the knowledge that was critical to their survival. “The letters would say, ‘We were over
there, we were confi dent with our equipment and what we could do, and we could tell the difference between the people who didn’t have the same type of training that we had.’”Looking back, both Charlie and Bob agree
that making the decision to join the military was a positive experience. “I think a lot of boys should do it. You learn
to take orders, you learn to behave yourself,” said Charlie. “Where I was stationed in Hawaii, that was a nice place. The people were nice, and I never had to scoop any snow. Or milk cows.”Charlie met several people who he ended
up becoming good friends with, and over the
years they continued to keep in touch. There was one man, though, that wasn’t so friendly. “There was one guy who wanted to fi ght all
the time. One day I took out my pocketknife, got out the blade and started widdlin,’ and I looked right at him and he never bothered me again,” said Charlie. “Maybe he was the one that stole my blanket, I don’t know!”“The military also teaches discipline and
conformity,” added Bob. “There was no favoritism. Everybody was the same.”And the lesson of always being willing to
be a volunteer certainly didn’t end with the military, either.
“That defi nitely carried over into every day life,” said Bob. “If a friend needed help, I’dbe there. If a neighbor needed something done, I was there, no questions asked. I volunteered for Meals on Wheels for manyyears. If someone asked for help or needed something, I’d always do it.”It has often been said, “One of the greatest
gifts you can give is your time.” And this father-son duo - by volunteering both their time to serve our nation’s military as well as always being willing to lend a helping hand for their community, family and friends - prove that to be true.

While teaching military truck driving, Bob Hilt taught and trained on several types of terrain in California. Shown above is one of the military convoys during a training session.
Bob explains that military students attending his classes learned survivability skills that allowed them to be prepared for any type of situation whiledriving in combat zones, and how to get themselves and their vehicles out of vulnerable situations.

By Emily SouvignierIt has been over fi fty years since Canton
native Barbara “Barb” Gilbertson Roe served in the Army Nurse Corps in South Vietnam during the Vietnam War, and now she and a group of friends have dedicated their spare time in helping other Veterans in need by paying it forward.Barb grew up on a farm south of Canton
and graduated from Canton High School in 1960. After graduation, she continued her education at what was then called the Sioux Valley Hospital School of Nursing and received her diploma in 1963. She continued to work there for two years
before moving to Madison, Wisc., to work at university hospitals. Motivated by her love for the profession, she joined the Army Nurse Corps in 1967 with the rank of 1st Lt. and completed basic training in Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas. She was stationed at Letterman General
Hospital in San Fransisco, Calif., and from there went on to serve in the 93rd Evacuation Hospital in South Vietnam from 1968-1969.During that time, the war in Vietnam
was raging. While the war began in 1955, American troops had actively been on the frontlines since March of 1965. 1968-1969 saw some of the deadliest battles of the entire war, and casualties were at an all-time high.While stationed in Vietnam, Barb worked
12-hour shifts, seven days a week in the post-op unit and recovery area of the hospital. The ward in which she was stationed consisted of eight X-shaped quonset huts. “The heat was oppressive, but in time, my
body adjusted. It rained every day at 4pm turning the red dirt into mud. By the next morning, it was red dust again,” she recalled. “It was exhausting but everyone helped each other and we made it.”Barb’s patients were mostly young men
around 18-20 years old with serious wounds.
“They were brave and it was a privilege to care for them,” she said. “To me, the med-evac helicopter pilots and crew were the most amazing men, putting their lives on the line with every single fl ight.”She spent a total of 12.5 months in Vietnam,
including a one-week R&R in Hong Kong and another week in Sydney, Australia. Upon her return home, she became a civilian and formerly ended her military career. Barb was married in 1970. She and her
husband, John, have three sons and seven grandchildren. For the past 16 years, they have lived in Lakeville, Minn. In addition to her military experience, Barb
also graduated from Mt. Marty University with a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Nursing, working as an RN for 45 years, primarily in Critical Care and the ER.In recent years, prior to the start of the
COVID-19 pandemic, Barb volunteered at a free dental clinic at her church as well as a quilter’s group. Then just two years ago, she embarked on a mission to make and distribute handmade quilts for homeless Veterans. The project was set into motion when
Barb learned that an old state hospital was being converted into a homeless Veterans community in Anoka, Minn. The buildings, called cottages, were completely renovated by volunteers and furnished by area furniture stores, mattress companies and linen stores. Being an avid quilter herself, Barb’s fi rst thought was that she could make and provide quilts for the Veterans staying in this community. She made contact with the organization and talked with her other quilting acquaintances, including several of her friends and sisters, about fulfi lling this dream. “I knew I couldn’t do it myself,” said
Barb. “We received generous donations of fabric from quilt stores, fabric designers and
personal stashes. Everyone has helped and we have volunteer quilters that donate their time and skills to quilt many of them for us. The quilts are putting big smiles on faces and it’s our way of saying we care and we thank you for your service.”To date, the group has delivered 75 quilts
to the Veterans at Haven for Heroes. Some Veterans arrive with children, so Barb and the group have also made children’s quilts as well. When the Veterans living in the community are able to transition out, the quilts are theirs to keep. “Every Veteran’s Day, I reflect and
remember the lives of all those young menand women that put it all on the line for our country,” Barb said. “Heroes, everyone!”Haven for Heroes, founded in December of
2018, is a stand-alone, non-profi t, substance and alcohol-free board and lodging facility, that provides recovery and transitional housing to serving members and Veterans. The organization’s mission is to “provide
a place of safety and refuge for Veterans and/or their family members who, for whatever reason, need assistance.” The organization’s website also goes on to say, “We hold our Veterans, who have selfl essly served our country, in the highest regard. It is understood that there will be wounds of war and unwanted outcomes of serving, both visible and invisible. Our intention is to partner with each Veteran to help alleviate and mend those wounds. The goalis rebuilding and rejuvenating their whole person to live the life they desire and so richly deserve.”For more information on Haven for Heroes,
please visit www.haven4heroesmn.org.
For their courage, hard work and dedication to their country, we salute the men and women of our Armed Forces past and present. It is because of their sacrifice that America remains the land of the free, and we thank them for protecting our citizens and our country.
Wishing all of our veterans and soldiers a very happy Veterans Day.
Barb Gilbertson Roe: Barbara “Barb” (Gilbertson) Roe is a 1960 Canton High School graduate. During the Vietnam War, Barb served in the 93rd Evacuation Hospital in South Vietnam as a member of the Army Nurse Corps from 1968-1969.
Vietnam Veteran Commits to Paying it Forward

The meeting was held in Washington D.C. to establish procedures for display-ing the United States Flag. The code was based on Army and Navy practices. In 1942, Congress passed a joint resolution to make the Flag Code a law.
Today, we celebrate June 14 as Flag Day.
Although it is a law, there are no penal-ties and the Flag Code is a voluntary guide for showing respect to the U.S. Flag. Forty-seven states have their own laws
with penalties that prohibit desecration of the flag or its use for advertising or
publicity.
The U.S. Flag should be displayed from sunrise to sun-set, unless it is well lit during
the darkness.
The U.S. Flag should always be placed above other flags and pen-
nants. There is one exception during a special Navy ceremony at sea.
On a stage, the U.S. Flag should al-ways be placed behind the speaker and to his/her right.
When hanging the U.S. Flag vertically or horizontally from a wall or window, the canton, or union, should be at the top right of the flag. When you face the flag, it should be on your left.
On Memorial Day, the U.S. Flag is flown at half staff until noon, and then raised until sunset.
The President of the United States, governors and limited other government officials may direct the U.S. Flag to be flown at half staff.
The U.S. Flag should not be allowed to touch the ground, but if it does, you are not required to destroy it as long as it is still suitable for display.
It is acceptable to wash or dry clean a U.S. Flag to keep it in good shape.
Only all-weather U.S. Flags made of non-absorbent material should be dis-played during bad weather.
When a U.S. Flag has served its life, it should be destroyed, preferably by burn-ing. Many American Legion posts have special ceremonies on Flag Day, June 14. You may have your own ceremony to dis-creetly burn worn out flags.
Never use a U.S. Flag to cover a statue or monument or drape the flag over the hood, top, sides or back of a vehicle, train or boat.
The U.S. Flag should not be used as wearing apparel, including costumes or athletic uniforms, bedding or drapery.
Every schoolhouse should display the U.S. Flag during school days.
The U.S. Flag should never be used for advertising purposes.
Flythe horizontal length, or width of a flag.
Fly endthe part of the flag that flaps in the wind and often becomes frayed.
Finiala decorative ornament on top of a flagpole or staff.
Half Staffthe position of the flag when it is one half the distance between the top and bottom of the staff or flagpole. This is done to mourn the death of an individual.
