As such. he participated in several recovery missions during mans historic decade in space. spanning Apollo missions 7 through 17. where he played an integral role in processing and patching both military and civilian phone traffic between the recovery ship and various points around the globe. His work on the Apollo recovery missions earned him lifetime membership with the VHF Spacenet. In addition to his military service. as I said. he worked for 25 years with the United States Border Patrol. His job was effectively coordinating communications between field stations and agents on patrol along our border. And during this time at the Border Patrol Dick became highly involved with the National Border Patrol Council Local 1613. where he served as first vice president. and it was Dick Stulz who interested me in the idea that the Border patrol needed help and that the Boarder Patrol represented not just a faceless agency that secured Americas border. but it represented some of the finest public servants in the United States. And it was a result of Dicks work that we started a scholarship fund for the children of Border Patrol families. and we are going to continue that fund. We are going to call it the Dick Stulz Memorial Fund. His wife Veronica.
