Zug Standing Bear

I was stationed at Yongsan Field Office, 7th Region CID from July 1977 to July 1978...as admin support. Worked as the clerk in charge of administrative duties and any other job not related to investigations. Brian was there as operations and I sometimes handled correspondence for him. He was interesting to watch...walking around at our parties with his wine glass in hand. He was interesting to talk to at times. I was new to CID and their way of operating. He kindly at times informed me about it. May he rest in peace and roam the skies of his ancestors.

I worked for Zug, my Operations Officer, in Yongsan ROK (1977-1978) as an Army CID Agent white collar crimes investigator. He invited me into his office a few times and questioned me about personnel and cases within the office, given my experience in my prior five years at Fort Bragg, NC. I enjoyed his sense of humor, as he seemed to also enjoy mine. I followed with interest his return to his Indian heritage. My sincerest condolences to his widow and family. Joe Parker (CW4 US Army Retired).

I only met Zug when he & Virginia lived in Georgia but followed his career online the last few years. He was remarkable individual and will be missed. Happy trails!

On behalf of Jacksonville State University, we were saddened to hear of the passing of Zug G. Standing Bear, PhD. Our deepest condolences are with his family, friends and colleagues during their time of loss.
