A Real Hero

I did not know this hero and gentleman, but my father trained with him, and they served together in Vietnam. Like him, my father was a FAC. Unlike him, my father returned home. Thank you, God, for heroes like Harry and my father. May God bless and comfort Harry's family.

If I should die...remembrances for MAJ. Harry Jay COATES, JR, USAF...who made the ulitmate sacrifice

If I should die, and leave you here awhile, be not like others, sore undone, who keep long vigils by the silent dust, and weep...for MY sake, turn again to life, and smile...Nerving thy heart, and trembling hand to do something to comfort other hearts than thine...Complete these dear, unfinished tasks of mine...and I, perchance, may therein comfort you.
