Rest in peace cousin
Your service to our country will never be forgotten. I followed in your footsteps and spent 20 years in the army and did my time in Vietnam. Also, it’s so sad that you had to leave us so young and I’ll never forget how aunt Bridgette loved you dearly. Remember old soldiers never die we just go on. Look forward to seeing you someday in heaven.

Ground casualty
On august 24th 1966, Anthony was off-duty and was hanging out with his fellow soldiers who were playing with a grenade. One of them gave the grenade to Anthony and said it was a fake grenade. He pulled the pin and rolled it across the floor when everybody jumped for cover. Anthony realized that it was a live grenade and he ran to it to throw it away when it exploded in his hands. He died from his wounds.
