Rhayce was a U.S. Army veteran, having served his country from 1976 to 1986, in Korea as well as state-side. After leaving the Army with a honorable discharge in 1986, he enjoyed several vocations, often serving his country as a civilian working at Fort Rucker. He loved his country, friends and family (who he was always ready to help in any way he could), a good bargain, and a good debate.
