Another 2May

It's spring again and a beautiful day in southeast Texas. My memories go back to that day 51 years ago that 1 LT Rick, SSGT Slye and SGT Corona were shot down in Cambodia. In a combat zone you don't keep track of the days of the week but I think it was a Saturday and the next day during a Sunday service we had a eulogy for our brothers who had perished the previous day. In giving the eulogy for Rick I know a tear came to my eye and others there at the service. It was difficult to realize that Rick and his crew were gone after a very successful incursion into Cambodia the previous day. At our Apache Troop 1/9 reunions we all talk about that day and what could have been. Know that Rick and his crew will never be forgotten by the men he served with.
