November 5, 2017 will always be a day I remember and I have no connection to the people of this town or the shooter… Their tragedy, was the memory trigger that started my path out of amnesia since 1972…
When the murders happened, I had lost most of my childhood memory, yet my body carried the scars, and I had no memory of how I got those injuries…
Everything from blunt force trauma fractures all over my body, to compartment syndrome in all my limbs or the neuropathy or the stenosis and the list goes on…
I knew of no accident, I had no memory of any beating and I asked the one person who would no…
My mother, Freda Bagwell…
A couple days after those murders, I told Homer I had a memory and he had heard those words for decades as I fought my way back to the here and now…
As I paced the room, twisting the dish towel as If I was wrestling a steer and I started talking of the night in Big Springs, Texas, when I died at 13 years old and I would lose the only true brother I had…
He would survive and be sent away, I would go on to live more horror from that christian military home…
As I told Homer, Don came in the door, tired and dragging, doing his military job all day and working at the bowling alley at night at Webb AFB in 1967…
Freda had just given birth to my half sister, the child conceived while Don was in Vietnam…
Freda started in on him and I heard a blow, as I stepped into the hall, my older half brother met me and we tried to stop the fight that was about that little girl in the other room only weeks old…
One blow led to another, my brother was severly beaten and I got hit in the chest and my heart stopped, I was 13, my brother 16…
What happened from that point on would lead to more beatings, more military coverup and a life of adventure, military service, gang rape by officers, attempted murder of my kids and a lot of Air Force coverup…
I survived, and I am a 100% disabled Air Force veteran and I took on not only the system, but I took on the corruption…
This is my story of surviving what so many children never do and still thriving after what the Air Force tried to do…
I remember and hope you will follow my story as I tell you how I walked out of darkness to remember…
