"We were ambushed the day after Thanksgiving, and Roy was shot while trying to give aid to wounded platoon members." Rusty Moran 1/2 Infantry, 1969 02 Aug 2002 "To live in the hearts we leave behind, is never to have died." (Thomas Campbell, circa 1888) From one who remembers, Christine Fickling niblet0@yahoo.com

4 Mar 2004 I shared a bunker with Roy at our base camp aid station at Dau Tieng, Vietnam. We were among 4 new medics and while waiting for our respective assignments. I got to spend a little time with him, of course I've thought of him many many times since. My interest at this time is to clarify what unit Roy was serving with. From a fellow member of the "Black Scarf" Battalion. E-Mail will be forwarded by the Webmaster@VirtualWall.org
