Charles Robert Kemble

In this article, I'm honored to introduce you to Charles Robert Kemble. Bob, as he asked to be called, has lived in Sandia Heights since 1986. He enjoys daily walks through the "uplifting scenic views" of his neighborhood he describes as being "blessedly quiet." He also feels lucky for his many "thoughtful, knowledgeable, intelligent, and helpful" neighbors and friends. A large part of Bob's career was spent in the military. Early on, he was an enlisted paratrooper and he retired as a Brigadier General, wearing many hats along the way. He has a special understanding of an important era of our military history; World War II, to be specific. At age 95, Bob is a member of the Greatest Generation and a veteran ofWWII. His willingness to share his story offers us a rare glimpse of a bygone era through the eyes of someone who actually lived through it.....
