At 17 summers, Ywahoo joined the Marine Corps, where he received training as a marksman. He spent some six years in Vietnam, where he received many honors and accolades as a battle-hardened American.

He was at Khe Sanh and Hue, and in the Tet Offensive. Though he was wounded many times he always managed to stand back up to defend the people, the land, and his honor.

Upon his return to the states, Ywahoo worked briefly in astronautical/aeronautical engineering, and then chose the morally simpler work of auto mechanics and the art of glassblowing.

Ywahoo married three times and fathered three children. All three marriages were arduous and rewarding in their journeys.

He had many friends in the Rappahannock area.
