Frank was always interested in protecting the rights of the people. In 1996 he contacted COL Bud Day and supported his fight against the government on behalf of military rights for medical benefits. Out of this fight, TRICARE for Life was born. He contacted REP John Carter about the inconsistencies with the processing of credit card transfers from point of sale terminals. Frank was a wealth of knowledge of the way the city was operated. He kept copies of all letters, newspapers, and prior events and was asked many times over the years to validate issues with his personal records.
