Doc begins ‘service before self’ at 61

SOUTHWEST ASIA (AFNS) - Walking into the office of Lt. Col. (Dr.) Joseph Keenan, one could possibly imagine him in private practice in his hometown - the warm, caring doctor the community has known for many years. But his Air Force "community" has only known him for two years. Keenan, who has

Sharkey's Pub

Admittedly I’ve fallen in love with Sumner. Yeah, it has cute little shops and all, but it’s the dive bars that really get me going. Something about Sumner makes me feel like I’m far enough away from home to not know anyone, yet close enough to make it home on
