Introduction

Manuel Guadan was born in Fullerton, California, in 1927. He loved being outside and used to say he would wake up to the aroma of fresh tortillas being made. He later moved to San Jose and went to the San Jose Technical High School. After school he went to World War II and ended up being part of the fighting in Normandy and at the Battle of the Bulge. He didn't talk much about the war but did like the movie "The Bridge on the River Kwai." He married Mary Loza and became an electrician, working on the old Moffett Field hangars, near the observatory and eventually for the city of San Jose. I remember a lot of stormy nights he had to go out and fix signals and other work, then work through the regular day. When it storms I think of him and all the others that go out to keep us safe. He liked to hang out in his garden, watch sports, go out to good restaurants and go see relatives in Monterey.
