From Diana Yancey - yd9825@bellsouth.net

My other uncle, Clyde "Buck" Yancey served in the US Army in the 1950's. I don't know if he served in Korea.

My brother, Dennis Riley Yancey, served in the US Army Signal Corp in the late 1960's and early 1970's. My brother served a year in Korea.

My cousin, Richard Sanford (his mother is Mollye Ann Yancey) served in the US Air Force in the 1970's.

My nephew, Christopher Dennis Yancey, is currently a recruiter for the US Navy. He is currently stationed in Chattanooga, TN. He began his career in June 1988. He will retire in 2008.
