Enough
Three days ago, Dec, 17, 2018, Charles would have celebrated his 70th birthday. Our mothers were close sisters. He was an only child but a brother to me. Named my youngest son after him a few months after Charles death. Over the past 50 years since we lost him I have experienced many emotions regarding that war and five close friends who were lost. I have visited them many time at the wall.
Easy to look on the dark side of war and what it has does to this county, but today, I choose to think of Charles and our last adventure before he left for Nam. We are in his red corvette, racing down U. S. 90 west headed for the “Big Easy, (New Orleans), chewing Red Man and listening to his favorite song by the Animals, the House of the Rising Sun.
“Bliss it was in that dawn to be alive,
But to be young was very heaven.”
William Wordsworth

Remembering An American Hero
Dear SP4 Charles Richard Geiger, sir
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.
With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir
Curt Carter
