Warrant Officer Roger Bruce Baxter, Served with Company C, 158th Assault Helicopter Battalion, 101st Aviation Group, 101st Airborne Division, United States Army Vietnam.

On the 50th year of the loss of a great husband, father, friend and country man. I sit and look back at our last summer together. The times at Possum Kingdom and all the other fun times. You were the biggest kid I knew. One of the biggest days I remember was the day you soloed for your wings. Mom brought use out to Ft Wolters to watch you and out to the Holiday Inn, to watch you be carried through the crossed rotor blades and tossed into the pool. (Never got the pool thing.) You were so patriotic, all you ever wanted to do is fly a helo, I guess since your dad couldn't get to. Even thou we didn't know each other very long, I want to Thank You for your ultimate sacrifice you gave our country, your love and kindness that you shared. I salute you and can't wait to shake your hand. Michael Nix
