Post War Years

Hank Bergman's place of separation from the service was at Fort Jackson, South Carolina. After he received his Honorable Discharge from the United States Army, he attended college on the G.I. Bill.

Following his return to Baltimore, Bergman was approached by the Democratic Party and asked to run for political office. However, he decided to seek a career in education instead.

Bergman married his wife Anne, and the couple moved to Miami Beach, Florida, where Hank graduated from the University of Miami with a Bachelor's Degree in Education in 1952. Later, he earned Masters and Specialist Degrees in Education from Nova Southeastern University.

Famous quotes containing the words post, war and/or years:

    I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage, with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post which any human power can give.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    High on a throne of royal state, which far
    Outshone the wealth of Ormus and of Ind,
    Or where the gorgeous East with richest hand
    Show’rs on her kings barbaric pearl and gold,
    Satan exalted sat, by merit raised
    To that bad eminence; and, from despair
    Thus high uplifted beyond hope, aspires
    Beyond thus high, insatiate to pursue
    Vain war with Heav’n, and by success untaught,
    His proud imaginations
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    I see the callus on his sole,
    The disappearing last of him
    And of his race starvation slim,
    Oh, years ago—ten thousand years.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
