He remained there 15 years before joining the U.S. Medical Corps attached to the Air Force. He held the rank of major. Shortly after joining, he and his family were stationed in Japan. He died unexpectedly of a heart attack while on a trip to what was then Indochina. His is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. He was only 48 years old. He left behind his wife, two daughters, Sandra Jean and Mary Ellen, and a son, Reed T. Goe, Jr.
