He Was My Captain
I was the radio operator at Camp Buon Ea Yang. I was talking to Captain Brown from my radio bunker at base camp that day in May 1967 when he was killed. He was my best friend at our camp. After his memorial at our camp I rotated out on the same chopper that carried his casket. He was a kind religious young man. Whenever the Vietnam subject comes up I think of him.

Best compass man in our Ranger class
Jerry was the best at map-reading. His patrols never got lost and came in first to chow and sleep. He was gracious & charming with his big smile and a slight Texas accent. We corresponded his year in VN until my last letter came back KIA. It was sad day for many who admired and loved him.
