I'm not sure i have the right Barney Goodman. The Barney i knew was from Elizabethtown. We were stationed together in Thailand. He was a good friend and we had a lot of laughs together. Sorry to hear that he has past. He is thought of. You all have my deepest condolences.

Barney was a wonderful friend to me and I loved sitting and talking with him.
We use to hang out all night playing the machines at the club. Good times with a dear friend
