honoring you...
Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. While all deaths in Vietnam are tragic that you died just one day after your 21st birthday is especially so. May you rest in eternal peace.

My neighbor who I looked up to as a kid. my first wake and funeral
Robert was my neighbor, in Shelton, CT and uncle to my friend Kenny. I remember him as a fun loving guy who used to make us laugh. He went into the Army and deployed to Vietnam. I so looked up to him. When he was killed in action in 1968, I was ten years old. My dad was an ex service man, and was attending Robert's wake service, and let me go with him. I look back now and realize how young he was to defend our country and give the ultimate sacrifice. God Bless and keep you Robert.
