Rocky, I remember when we use to go out on patrols and I use to follow you in your footsteps and always yell at you for walking through any body of water you could find. That day I switched platoons when we went out on patrol on a peaceful sunny day. I didn't know it would be your last, and I would be the one to watch you die. You were only 19. You and all the others have always been in my prayers every day. It is hard to believe it has been 37 years. I have been here to the WALL many times and wish I could still see you walking through that water. I know God is watching over you.
