honoring you....
A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

Ground Casualty
SP4 Charles W. Roberts Jr. was an infantryman serving with Headquarters & Headquarters Company (HHC), 2nd Battalion, 8th Cavalry, 1st Cavalry Division. At approximately 8:35 PM on July 18, 1971, Roberts was in a guard bunker at a radio relay site fifteen kilometers (9.0 miles) west of Nui Be Mountain (Hill 874) in Darlac Province, RVN, when he passed out and stopped breathing. A medic attempted to revive him, but efforts were unsuccessful. Roberts was twenty-one years old. A subsequent autopsy determined he had overdosed on a mix of Darvon and alcohol. Darvon, an opioid, is an analgesic drug (pain reliever). Following his death, Roberts’ body was forwarded to the U.S. Army Mortuary at Tan Son Nhut Air Base. After processing, it was transported to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware before being returned to his family in Georgia. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org]

Remembering An American Hero
Dear SP4 Charles W Roberts Jr, sir
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.
With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir
