Captain Ski, God bless

Capt. Ski - you looked after us when no one else wanted to. You saw us through Tet, you stood up for your men . You treated the lowliest Pvt. as well as any other man in your command. I've never forgotten your kindness in the face of the insanity we faced. God bless, Captain Ski, from a grunt in 3rd platoon 12/67 - 2/70.
