Dave Lockard

Dave Lockard is a retired commercial insurance safety representative who has a love for American & world history who has finally found out in life that he can actually learn more by listening than by talking. Dave knew several WW-1 (aka ‘The Great War’) Veterans growing up that influenced his knowledge of how 100 year old events are still influencing much in the world today. Dave has an amazingly tolerant wife, a Kool Aid budget and a fine wine taste who’d rather have a root beer float than a beer. At 74, his favorite expression is “When I was born, the Dead Sea wasn’t even sick.” Dave is fascinated with old vehicles – and still owns and occasionally drives an original paint/no rust 1952 Studebaker V-8 Commander he bought in 1968 for $300 while on leave from the Navy and has since graduated to restoration of ‘Great War’ era old Packard trucks.
