[Sons to Glory!]

So I got permission to post his email, from the local bro who replied to me about Doug - here 'tis.

Doug K, was such a favorite of W.L.. in the up to the mid-70's. The Golden boy even. He was in and among so many groups that eventually found their way into the LC, especially the "Seal Beach" group that eventually went to San Jose.

We had him in our home in LA, with a large group of new folks that he had brought in. He had no cares about the house - things were a mess when he left.

He and another brother, I had mentioned before, had gotten into an Investment Diamond Firm '77 '78. So they contacted Gene Ford and invited him, and thru Gene invited me, to come to LA to learn the business. (Big story, have to tell you some time.) BTW, if you hadn't noticed by now: IT DIDN'T WORK OUT!

What Fun! You should have seen this large group of brothers, at midnight, after having a very nice meal at a very nice place, (having been expelled from LC), Pipe smoking, shouting, crossing Wilshire Blvd (LA), at midnight. Shouting: "B.S." "B.S" over and over again. Not something we would have stood and shouted at the testimony time in the L.C. RECKON?
