John Quigley

After 35 years in the military, John Quigley, Beardstown, retired in 2002. He’s proud of his service but there’s a lot that he won’t talk about. 

John graduated from Beardstown High School in 1968. He entered the U.S. Army in 1967 and served in the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm. He served with the 25th Infantry and the First Calvary. He was in Vietnam for a little over a year.
