From a researcher, |
I knew Carl from the 7th grade on and he was a good hand. I was in Vietnam from Feb 1967 until May 1969. Several of his classmates and I talk about Carl when we get together on a fishing or hunting trip. I was in an engineer company and we worked with the 173rd a lot and when we were in the Tuy Hoa area I must have been real close to Carl and did not know it. Dave Hufford, another classmate of Carl's, still has a pocket knife that he bought from Carl in junior high. Carl, you are still in our thoughts after all these years. Semper Fi !
