Gordon Berkstresser is a retired accountant and former U.S. Army Lieutenant.  He has lived in a handful of different places and worked in various capacities, notably as a platoon leader in the Vietnam War, an auditor for U.S. Steel, and Aristech, VP & Controller for RMI Titanium, a professor at Robert Morris University, and later as the CFO of Lifenet Health, where he worked for the last 14 years of his career.  Gordon shares some very personal stories and we sure did learn a lot.  Our conversation takes us from the icy steps of Level Green, PA, to the frat houses at Kent State, the wartime jungles of Southeast Asia, the shores of Lake Huron, the skyscrapers of Pittsburgh and the organ & tissue donation freezers of Virginia Beach.  And then there’s the awkwardly comedic exchange about ducks that Bethany is still shaking her head about.  Lastly, Gordon fielded some great listener questions about his experiences in the war. Buckle up for this riveting ride!
