While in the service he had a bleeding ulcer and was shipped to Walter Reed Hospital until he was healed. Then he was put on duty mowing the Pentagon, before finishing his tour of duty over seas. Ray enlisted in the Navy and became a fireman at the airport in Newfoundland. His chosen profession was lawn Care and he mowed with his wife Carlyn.
