Fellow Officer
I knew LTC Karl Lange when he was a Major with the 2d Brigade of the 25th Division. He was thoughtful, intelligent, professional and in remarkable physical shape. He was one of many field grade officers who made the Wolfhounds (27th Regiment) a strong unit that would function well in Vietnam. I learned of his death after I and many others were safely home - home because of the competence and hard work of Karl Lange and others. Thank you sir, we owe you more than you or we ever knew.

If I should die...remembrances for LTCOL. Karl Ferdinand LANGE, USA...who died so we may be free!!!!
If I should die, and leave you here awhile, be not like others, sore undone, who keep long vigils by the silent dust, and weep...for MY sake, turn again to life, and smile...Nerving thy heart, and trembling hand to do something to comfort other hearts than thine...Complete these dear, unfinished tasks of mine...and I, perchance, may therein comfort you.
