Dear SFC Roy Cobb,
Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. December is here, along with all the preparations. It is almost Christmas. It is so important for us all to acknowledge the sacrifices of those like you who answered our nation's call. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

I dont remember the date...I think it was around 1967-68 Roy was home on leave and came by and we went for a few beers. (We both dated the Cooper girls JoAnn and Sue) we rode up and down the mall till 12 or so talking over old times and I told him as we parted to be careful.....I moved, and never saw my friend again..
We sure had some good times.
