Yes.
8 years.
In 1979 when he was 18 years old.
Dave Pelzer got the education he needed when he was in school, but when he got out of his mother's torture home, he was put into foster care, where he received his correct level of education, for his mother held him back twice for no reason at all... By the time Dave turned 18, he didn't attend a college, but joined the air force... He is really an amazing man... nuff sed.!!!
He did many things: Worked with unpriviledged youth, wrote his book, starting his speaking career.
He did not go to College. He dropped out of High School and later got his GED later in order to join the Air Force. (Can be found in his book "A Man Named Dave.")
Dave Pelzer's educational background includes a high school diploma but no formal higher education. He has shared his experiences of childhood abuse and resilience in his books, such as "A Child Called 'It'."
He has always lived in California (excluding his air force time).
There is no repelling in the Air Force Basic Training...at least not in 1985 when I joined.
He Joined the Air Force as a cadet. All men know that to be a pilot in the U.S Air Force you have to be an Officer.
Yes He joined the Air Force and became a pilot
No. During WWII American Men who joined the Canadian Air Force and went to England were allowed to transfer to the US Army Aircore when the Americans later arrived in England. Presently it is not done.
David Pelzer served in the United States Air Force as an Airman during the 1970s. His military experience was marked by a commitment to service, and he later used his background to help inspire others. Pelzer's time in the military is often overshadowed by his later work as an author and motivational speaker, particularly known for his memoir "A Child Called It," which details his traumatic childhood.
