2 Lt. Dennis E. Burke

I still think of you often. I was so young when you passed but I remember going to Lee's Pharmacy where you worked and you always made me an Ice Cream Cone. When you bought up all my lemonade I made. Watching you play football at Mt. St. Charles. Looking out the window waiting for you. Love and Miss You.
Your Baby Sister,
Kimberly

My Friend

I was with Dennis Burke and Burns that sad day, Burke was new to our unit but made friends fast. I was the medic that retrieved and treated them. Neither suffered thank God. I was the 3rd APC behind when we heard the explosion. I think 6 other guy's were seriously wounded including on of my new medics that was on the 1st APC.I'll never forget.
