On today, the 50th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army as a Green Beret in Vietnam fighting the NVA and VC-especially during the 1968 Tet Offensive at the Battle of Lang Vei. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
Green Berets All The Way!
