Thank you!
Hello, my name is Michael. I currently live in Green, Ohio. I am doing a project for my history class. Even though I never had the pleasure of meeting or knowing this incredible man, I wanted to share my thoughts about him. I believe that he was a very heroic and amazing person. The reason that I chose to write a rememberance about Mr. Adams, is that we come from the same birthplace, Pottstown, PA. I would like to commemorate him for his duty to his country and let people know that I appreciate what he did for me, my family and our incredible country. Thank you!

We never did meet in Vietnam
The last time I saw Lee Adams was in March 1968 at Fort Sherman, Panama. He had just finished Jungle School and I was just starting it. As we were both assigned to the First Cav Division we agreed to meet in Vietnam but never did. He was killed shortly after he arrived in Vietnam. He died on April 6th as I was spending my first full day in the field.

The Philadelphia Inquirer - April 19, 1968
A Pottstown officer who had "no complaints" about service in Vietnam was killed in action, the Defense Department reported Thursday.
2d Lt. Lee S. Adams, 21, of 618 Willow st., Pottstown.
Lt. Adams' parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lee C. Adams, received from their son on March 20 a letter filled with a determination "to clean things up and get rid of the Communists."
Drafted in September, 1966, he was graduated from Officers Candidate School at Fort Benning, Ga. His parents said he was "very much in favor of going to Vietnam." He began his Asian tour late in March.
The last letter told of plans "to go up north to relieve a Marine column in Khe Sanh." He was killed April 6.
