<strong>YONGSAN GARRISON, Republic of Korea</strong> - One Yongsan noncommissioned officer with the 142nd Military Policy Company was in "hog heaven" July 25, when he was presented with a brand-new Harley Davidson courtesy of Army and Air Force Exchange New Car Sales.
Sgt. 1stt Class Laverne Starr formally accepted the keys for his new 2009 Harley Davidson 883 Iron at the entrance of the Main Post Exchange in a ceremony presided over by USAG-Yongsan Commander Col. Dave Hall and AAFES New Car Sales Area Three Sales Manager Richard Berger.
Starr's entry form in the "It's your time to ride" promotion was selected from among 100,000 contestants worldwide.
According to Berger, Starr's lucky entry form for the $9,000 machine was submitted at the Dragon Hill Lodge.
With so many entries being submitted worldwide, Starr did not expect to win. "When I was initially informed about winning, I was surprised," he said. "It is nice that AAFES is giving back to the community and servicemembers with such great prizes."
Hall said the contest is a great example of AAFES supporting the community. "We're glad to see Yongsan represented in this worldwide giveaway, and always thankful for the service and financial contributions AAFES makes to supporting our quality of life every day."
