Dear Jerry:
Last week my wife finished reading your book "My Gift to You." It took her months to finish it, as she her sadness made her put it aside at times. She sends her thanks to you for memorializing each and every trooper.
I made my annual trek to San Fernando Mission Cemetery. I made a friend who lived close to me in the San Fernando Valley. He was Col. Shali's Charlie Charlie pilot, then volunteered for a Pink Team flying loaches. He was shot down and KIA on 8-1-71 going back down to see where the fire was coming from. My parents went to his funeral while I was still in Nam. My mother ended up buried about 50 feet away in the same row.
May our brothers in arms all rest in peace. Many heros there never got the recognition they deserved. Replies: There have been no replies.
