While in the Navy, Bobby was the drill instructor for the demolition divers in Honolulu, equivalent to what has now become the Navy Seals. In Vietnam he was captured by the Vietcong and placed in a cage in water. Because of his training he knew he would quickly lose strength and he assessed his situation. The second time his captors came to feed him, he grabbed the man and strangled him, took his knife and escaped barefoot into the jungle. Many miles later he again encountered enemy and this time stabbed a man to death and again escaped. When he finally reached an American unit he threw up his arms and announced himself and then was returned to his own unit.
