Hero that I never met.
My Dad knew Calvin and took me to the vietnam wall to find his name when I was about 8 or 9 years old. My Dad was also a vietnam Vet. I never saw my Dad cry from sadness accept when he reached up and felt Calvin’s name on the wall. I’ve remembered his name for 40 years and I’m happy he was brought home.
