BTK was a student and a military vet at the same time. Wiki says "Rader attended Butler County Community College in El Dorado, earning an associate degree in electronics in 1973. He then enrolled at Wichita State University and graduated in 1979 with a bachelor's degree in administration of justice". It also says he spent four years (1966–1970) in the United States Air Force.
I am working on the hypothesis that EARONS evaded capture because he was an experienced biker/hiker/walker in the creeks near the places he committed crimes in and a birth date of around 1958 if we accept he is also VR. This would put him in the early 20s going to college/attending some education (could be for manual work too) in the same area he commits his crimes in. What the "local student hiker" hypothesis doesn't explain is how he acquired the knowledge to restrain people. Sure, he may have acquired it by simply reading and experimenting, but the complexion of the case suggests military-style training.
Let's go the whole hog on this. Could ONS be both a Vietnam vet and a student? BTK joined the air-force to avoid the draft. So it seems many students dropped out from school to join the air force or navy and got back by 1970 in time to get into university the same year (Rader was from 1970 to 1973 going for his associates degree in electronics - During the vietnam war which finished in 75!).
So if EARONS was born in 1958 meaning starting as VR at 18-20 or so, then he wasn't a Vietnam vet as he was too young... but doesn't mean he isn't EARONS.
However, if EARONS was born in 1948, and we ask what would he do between 18-20, we get 1966 to 1968 or 1970 (+- 2 years). This is the same amount of time and the exact years Rader was in the USAF. However, VR started in 75. That's a big gap between 1970 and 75. So this doesn't really fit... but there are bigger gaps (81 to 86) however if we go midway in DOB we get 1953 and the war ending in 1975 then we can have him coming home at 22, attending university and is also VR.
So unless I am mistaken, VR/EAR/ONS could be a Vietnam Vet and a Student in his 20s. In short, the two are not mutually exclusive. That's the take home message I think I got from doing this.
Still, we have some problem fitting military time into VR-EAR-ONS because of the sequence of events between 81 and 86.
I will explain below.
From 81 to 86 the US didn't really have a clear 5 year war during that period, but there was some activity in the Lebanon, Libya etc., which could explain overseas military work. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_United_States_military_operations#1980.E2.80.931989 .. but it looks doubtful.
However in 87 you have the gulf war and a lot of operations since then. EARONS last known victim was in 1986. So maybe the war in 1987 explained why he stopped along with DNA testing now commercially available.
That for some reason in the period of 76 to 81 was a young Vietnam vet studying in the area he was born in, a biking/hiking fanatic with a now warped perspective of sex and death taking revenge on woman and couples living in affluent areas near creeks he is familiar with.
In the scenario of Vietnam vet and student what would he do between 81 and 85 that would make sense for a vet? Would vets go back to war in 87?
Maybe people can find holes in my rational concerning time frames and possibles. Maybe I am wrong and its not possible for him to be Vietnam vet or in the mililtary. Maybe the gap between 81 and 85 does have a military angle. Just some suggestions
