THE WALL OF FACES

I also was also in FLSG-B. I knew Steven. I helped bring his truck back to DaNang after he was killed. Beyond any doubt, he did not suffer. It broke all our hearts. He was driving to fill in for another friend of ours who was on R&R. It happened between Hill 55 and Hill 65. It affected all of us, but especially the man he was filling in for. He has suffered from "it should have been me" syndrome. We have remained friends since then and talk by phone often. He is okay now but like all of us, will never forget Corporal Steven Boegli.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from your sister Ruth Ann are moving. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us....

Corporal Steven Warren Boegli, Served with the Truck Company, 1st Service Battalion, Force Logistics Support Group Bravo (FLSG-Bravo), Force Logistics Command, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

I spent 30 nights standing perimeter guard with Cpl Boegli. We got to know each other very well during that time as all service men do with one another. I watched Boegli driving away in his truck the day he was killed. I knew that he wasn't supposed to be in that convoy that day. I gave him a questioning gesture and he replied with a gesture that said "What are you going to do? I'm stuck." I never saw him again. The image of that moment is seared into my memory. May God bless his soul and allow him entry into heaven. He was a good man.

I think about him a lots of days but especially about a month before & after 11 may. i always remember him looking over his glasses when talking to him.
