Long lost but always remembered

I went to school with Allen and I went to Vietnam as a volunteer. I had the fortune to survive and I lost many friends both Marine and Army.

Marines guard the streets of heaven

Frenchy,
You and my dad made it through boot camp and made it past Dutch. My dad searched for you for years. He finally found you on the traveling wall in 1985 in Chicago. Tomorrow, I'll take my boys to see you in the wall. We must never forget all gave some and some gave all. Semper Fi

We Will Remember

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

My friend Allen

While watching the Memorial Day remembrance on PBS I thought of my high school friend and Jewel co-worker Al. We laughed and clowned at the South Park Jewel, graduated from MTHS and went out ways. I heard you fell when I was in college and it hit me hard. Then I am was drafted in 68, and I thought of you. RIP my friend, never forgotten!
