Hero
Russ,
Though I just yesterday found this sight, know that I think of you often and the great times we had in high school. Peace to you and all those who made the ultimate sacrifice. I'll see you again.

Never Forgotten
Always Remembered
Slip off that pack. Set it down by the crooked trail. Drop your steel pot alongside. Shed those magazine-ladened bandoliers away from your sweat-soaked shirt. Lay that silent weapon down and step out of the heat. Feel the soothing cool breeze right down to your soul....and rest forever in the shade of our love, brother.
From all your "Band of Nam Brothers"
