In 1983, Tony joined the United States Army, where he served as an Equipment Records and Parts Specialist for the 1st Cav Division. Fort Hood, Texas. After his tour of duty, he returned home.

During his career on base, he met the love of his life, Tammy. They were joined in Holy Matrimony and remained so for 24 years until his passing.
