we will remember

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

Thank You

Dear Sp4 Don Potter, Thank you for your service as a General Vehicle Repairman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Sunday was the 77th anniversary of D-Day, Operation Overlord. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Ground Casualty

SP4 Don Potter and SP4 Michael Romano Jr. were mechanics serving with Headquarters & Service Battery, 8th Battalion, 6th Artillery, 1st Infantry Division. During the late afternoon on November 3, 1967, Potter and Romano were manning a bunker near the perimeter fence at Phu Loi Base Camp in Binh Duong Province, RVN, when an explosion occurred after the pin on a hand grenade was accidently pulled. Both Potter and Romano suffered fatal blast and fragmentation wounds in the incident. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org and information provided by James Strickland (June 2018)]
