As I have written before, the Durrs became very good friends after the Schurrs left the Air Force toward the end of my assignment at Minot. Mike and I played and coached a number of the teams and we spent many hours on courts and on the playing fields for our squadron and for our wing.
That's how you survived, and thrived, in Minot, because of good, good friends. The Durrs would also end up in Colorado Springs for a few years before Mike left the Air Force to return to Seattle, WA, where he grew up and where his and Debbie's families lived.
We even got together one afternoon in Denver when I lived here and Mike was in Colorado for Boeing Aerospace. I also visited with him and his boys when they showed up at a Barnes and Noble bookstore in Seattle where I did a books signing for the RAoF series.
