Famous Veterans: Chuck Norris
Chuck Norris is well known martial arts practitioner, and movie and television actor. But his martial arts training began during his military service.
Chuck Norris joined the United States Air Force as an Air Policeman in 1958 and was sent to Osan Air Base, South Korea. It was there that Norris acquired the nickname Chuck and began his training in Tang Soo Do (tangsudo), an interest that led to black belts in that art and the founding of the Chun Kuk Do (“Universal Way”) form. When he returned to the United States, he continued to serve as an air policeman at March Air Force Base in California. Norris was discharged from the U.S. Air Force in August 1962. (Wikipedia)
