Sergeant York came to our platoon around November 1967. He was placed in charge of the rifle squad that I was in. He was a fine man who always put his men first. I had the utmost respect for him and his death was a great loss to us in the unit. Even after 37 years, he is still in my thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace, my old friend.
