honoring you...
Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. While all deaths in Vietnam are tragic that you died one day shy of your 41st birthday is especially so. May you rest in eternal peace.

A Sad Christmas Eve
I left the Bus Stop at the Brinks Hotel about three minutes before it was blown up on Christmas Eve 1964. I knew two men were killed, but I didn't know who the second man was because he lived for awhile. I think of the two dead Americans every Christmas Eve, now 53 years ago today. Now I can place a name as I wish then a rest in peace.
