NORTH SEWICKLEY TWP. – Township native Dennis Shingleton has spent his adult life serving his country and his community.
The 1965 Riverside High School graduate has served in the Navy, the Army and as a city councilman and mayor pro-tem of Fort Worth, Texas, the 13th largest state in the United States.
Shingleton s journey began when he was attending Duquesne University and got a low number in the draft. I was certain I didn t want to go in the Army. My father had been in the Navy in WWII, so I talked to a Navy recruiter about being a pharmacist, but he told me they didn t need pharmacists but I could join as a pharmacy aide or go to officer candidate school, so I chose the officer candidate school, he said.
