Ground Casualty

img
SP4 Charlie K. Wooden was an Indirect Fire Infantryman serving with B Company, 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry, 1st Cavalry Division. Since late February 1968, when SP4 Wooden arrived in Vietnam, the 1st Cavalry Division was engaged in continuous combat during the Tet Offensive and the relief of the Marines under siege at Khe Sanh Combat Base. In late April, they were preparing for Operation Delaware, a move to drive the North Vietnamese Army from the A Shau Valley. About a week before OP Delaware began, Wooden was recreational swimming in the South China Sea in Quang Tri Province, RVN, when he reportedly drowned. His body was recovered and positively identified on April 20, 1968. Wooden was posthumously promoted to Sergeant. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org]

Missing you!

I think of you often brother. You was the oldest of 5 children and you left us first. Your wife, Mamie, just passed away on Dec. 21, 2016 and she never remarried. We lost your pictures after our mom died and it took me this long to find one of you. I have been determined to find one, as I did not want you to be the only person on the wall without a picture. I have shared it for all the world to see as I posted it on Facebook. I was and am still so proud of my big brother. Thank you for your service to our country. Forever missing you. Rest on in Paradise! Love you, your sister, Gloria bka Lady.

Remembering An American Hero

Dear SGT Charlie K Wooden, 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

Curt Carter
