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.

Ed Sanchez, USMC
I hate to get on here and disagree with a couple others who have posted here. To set the record straight on two different posts: Ed was not assigned to whatever fire team one person claims he was. Maybe a person of a similar name, but not the Ed Sanchez described and pictured here. For two, unless the grave of Ed was moved from where his remains were originally buried, the cemetery information is incorrect!
Ed is buried on a ranch west of Junction. Basically take I-10 West and follow signs to Ft. McKavett. Once you turn off I-10 to the north, the ranch is shortly down the road on the left. The ranch was gated at the paved road and a single story house was slightly to the right side of the road entering the property.
Ed, and I believe the other person was his grandfather are buried next to each other. That was 30 some years ago, may be others there now.
Ed came to VMO6 as a Huey mechanic in late 68. We had the old E-model Huey Gunships assigned to Quang Tri. I flew with Ed on either his first or second mission. Great guy, sharp, always smiling and intelligent. He was a young guy who for lack of better terms, HAD HIS ACT TOGETHER!
ED came to us I believe from a base in southern California. Didn't take long to know his pride and joy was his daughter, he shared her picture with me and many others. Shame he never had a chance to watch her grow up.
Ed was shot down in the area of the Ash Shau Valley (sp?).
RIP Buddy . . your memory lives on! Semper Fi..
